Q

Steps in an interview:

A

Step 1: It must be planned. Be sure you know the exact purpose of the interview and the “mechanics” of it (time, location and estimated duration)

Step 2: The opening conversation is helpful. Hopefully, there will be an initial discussion of mutual topics of interest to move the discussion away from ongoing work considerations to the specific topic. Professional CS Technicians should have the confidence, pride, expertise and positive attitude to reduce tension and allow them to be confident during the interview.

Step 3: Questions will be asked. This is where the interviewee’s anticipation of potential questions and ability to effectively speak and listen will be most useful. It is also where application of the speaking and listening tactics outlined previously will be most helpful.

Step 4: The interview discussion can be reviewed. Hopefully, the interviewer will provide a summary. The CS technician should provide reactions to this review, so both parties can agree on what was decided and which,if any, follow-up activities should be undertaken
