What is It
Communication is the art of
exchanging messages between
two or more people.
Interpersonal communication is the
process by which people exchange
information through verbal and non-
verbal messages.
Interpersonal skills also include the
ability to:

1. listen and understand


2. solve problems
3. make decisions
4. manage personal stress
The three types of communication
are verbal communication, non-
verbal communication, and written
communication.
Verbal communication includes
conversation, dialogue or interview.
Verbal communication is the
use of sounds and words to
express yourself, especially in
contrast to using gestures or
mannerisms.
Nonverbal communication is
the transfer of information
through the use of body
language including eye
contact, facial expressions,
gestures and more.
We will focus on the verbal communication and employ
strategies for effective interpersonal communication.
Conversation or dialogue is a
natural part of life in which
people can exchange
information and maintain
social relationships with
friends, family members and
others.

Strategies used in
Conducting an
Effective
Interview
People are sources of
information and an
interview is a way to
gather detailed or
revealing information.
Interviews look so easy, right? All
one person has to do is ask
questions and the other person
answers. But, interviewing is
much more complicated than it
appears.
INTERVIEW STRATEGIES:
• Start Easy - Make your interviewee
comfortable/relaxed and start with
short, simple questions.
• Ask the right questions - Use open-
ended questions and prompts. Avoid
leading questions.
INTERVIEW STRATEGIES:
• Have a Conversation - Do not read a
question from a page as it interrupts
the flow of conversation and seems
artificial.
• Find an anecdote (small story) to
illustrate your point for example “Tell
me about a time when.”
INTERVIEW STRATEGIES:

• Pay attention to details -


write down important details-
-spelling, address, ages, and
statistics. Double-check the
information.
DURING PREPARATION
Preparation for interviewing is
very important. It requires both a
friendly manner and a careful
preparation. A formal interview
can be requested through a phone
call, letter or in person.
Here is a checklist of the important
things you need to discuss with your
interviewee before the interview.
• Purpose of the interview and
location
• Time and length of time needed for
the interview.
• Research the subject in which the
interview should be discussed.
• Find out as much as possible about
the person being interviewed.
• Part of the preparation phase
consists of forming questions. Good
questions are the key to successful
interviewing and take careful
planning.
• Always remember that the
questions should be written in
advance.
• If the information desired involves
detailed facts, a list of questions
could be given to the person prior to
the interview.
HOW TO WRITE EFFECTIVE
QUESTIONS

As a good interviewer, you need to


be selective with the questions
you have because not all
questions are effective during an
interview.
EFFECTIVE QUESTIONS
INEFFECTIVE/NEED TO AVOID QUESTIONS
DURING THE INTERVIEW
• Introduce yourself and state the
purpose of your interview.
• If you want to record the
interview, ask permission to use
it from the person being
interviewed.
DURING THE INTERVIEW
• Have your questions written
down so that you can stay with
the topic.
• Phrase questions carefully.
• Listen carefully. Ask politely for
more details when necessary.
DURING THE INTERVIEW
• Take notes during the interview.
• Be courteous.
• Find an appropriate way to end
the interview when the allotted
time has been reached.
• Thank the person for the
interview and the information
