Tuesday November 16- Today I worked in the Business Department from 11am to 1pm. I did my first interview today. I reworked some of my questions that I worked on before because I knew that my first interview was with Dr. Mike Tracy who does the internernships. Once we set up the cameras and made sure everything was running smoothly, we did a practice run through of my questions and his answers. I thought I would need to read my list of questions, but once we did the run through I realized that I didn't even need them. A good interview runs like a conversation. I stayed on topic but my next question came off of something in his answer. I learned that I really like interviewing. You have to prepare, but not seem too prepared. It should just sound natural and flow. I didn't get a chance to see the interview but he is planning to edit it down to just a couple minutes and put it on the FSC website.
This was just my first interview. I am planning to do interviews with the rest of the professors in the department over the next few weeks.
The best interviews ARE like conversations. We go over this a little in broadcast writing.
