  2. Who’s in Control? • When interviewing someone, you may have carefully planned questions but… • the interviewee might provide an answer that goes in a completely different direction than you were intending • OR • the interviewee wants to talk about something different altogether • OR • the interviewee gives you “nothing” with their answer • As the interviewer, you have to keep command of your interview by leading your interviewee in way that they feel they are in control. • HOW DO YOU DO THAT?

Follow-Up Questions • Follow-up questions do exactly what the name implies: They follow up on something the interviewee has said. • For example: • Q: What was the best thing that happened to you in high school? • A: I guess that would have to be when my boyfriend broke up with me at the prom. • (WAIT…WHAT???!) • ***Follow-up Q: That doesn’t sound like a very good thing. Why was it the best thing that happened to you?
