The Interview

In Thursday's lecture the topic was interviewing. We learned the do's and the don'ts to effectively conducting an interview with a potential news source. Some interesting points brought up were to be prepared. At the interview make adequate time and bring something to record the information you get. You don’t have to have a recorder but it helps with being able to quote someone exactly, otherwise have a pen and paper to write. Don’t be afraid to ask questions in the interview. Just in case you missed a point speak up and ask your source to repeat. In my product management class I had to interview my client about their organization and I found that my notes are golden!
