Interviewing (Part 4)

Put your subject at ease during the first five minutes of the interview. Then turn on your digital recorder. Have a set of questions prepared before the interview. Here are 10 questions to use as a guide, but don’t use my ten questions as is. They would not all be used in one interview.
