Tips on Interviewing Write your introduction for the interviewee Make the introduction short and sweet. Try to include an interesting fact about your interviewee Arrive early Start with the most interesting question Treat it as a conversation Be playful, smile Use callbacks To help engage the audience, use “callbacks” by bringing up something that has been said during the interview. Listen to anything that happens spontaneously in the space that causes a laugh and seek clever ways to reference it again. Callbacks make it fun for the audience. Allow for silences, don’t interrupt Use open-ended questions Wrap up the interview nicely Let the audience know the program is coming to an end by saying “We’re almost out of time. There are a few key things to wrap up.” Then, summarize the discussion and offer opportunities for discussion beyond the session.
