Semi-structured interview

Going into the interview sessions we were not sure what to expect when conducting our interviews. Asking personal questions to someone is never easy and if you are not used to communicating with elderly patients then it can be intimidating. Our group consisted of four members who each interviewed one elderly individual using the same questions we decided on in the beginning. The questions started with the basics such as age, gender, what medications they are currently taking, and then got…

I chose to interview Kirsten Hinshaw because before she became the astounding Director of St. Ursula musicals, she was an Actress. The career I want to pursue the most is performing so it made sense for me to interview someone who understands that field. She dropped everything when she was seventeen and moved to New York to attend City Of New York University. Then she started her exciting career from there Mrs. Hinshaw is a very interesting person who has lived a very fantasizing life. Mrs.…

During your interview, what did you do well? In the interview, what I thought I did well was ask questions that pertained to the research topic. In addition, I was able to engage the interviewee.

I think having pre-selected questions was helpful with helping the conversation flow naturally. I also applied motivational interviewing techniques during the interview. For…

Various factors distinguish the term interview from interrogation. Such as, an interview is a conversation between two or more people where the interviewer asks questions to obtain facts or statements from the interviewee.

Lori and I have been friends for as long as I can remember. Our interview was more like two friends having a conversation that focused on her aging father with Parkinson’s Disease and her role as a caregiver, however we drifted off the subject a time or two reminiscing about many years ago. Lori has two children, a son, Jamie and a daughter, Baylee. She has been in a relationship with a gentleman for about ten years. Since Lori and I have remained in contact with one another throughout the years…

have never had a job before and was not sure what were the protocols for preparing for an interview. The day before my interview I decided to sign up for a mock interview with the Career Advancement Office. The interview is ran as a real interview to help students prepare for the actual job interview. I was pretty nervous for the mock interview but not as nervous on the day of the RA interview. My interview was on a Saturday at 3:00 pm. When I woke up that morning all I could think about was…

applied for would call me for an interview or the position. Needless to say, I was wrong. The job seeking experience is now one that I do not look forward to at all. In fact, I dread job searching, but due to my recent enlightenment on everything I was doing wrong I can become a more competitive candidate for future openings. I have always been a well-rounded person and do well academically. This fact made me confident that most employers would want me, but this mock interview enlightened me…

committed. In the interview, the relationship caused the interview to lose its credibility. In the interview both Snyder and Manson insulted one another while asking and answering questions. While asking a question,at the beginning of the interview, Snyder identified Manson as a maniac. Them arguing caused the interview to lose its credibility because Manson would focus on the insult instead of the question that was asked. This makes it difficult to conduct an effective interview because the…
