Methods of Interview:- 

• Telephone Interview

• Personal interview

1- Telephone Interview:-

If the information you seek is of a routine nature and only brief answers are required from a small number of people you may contact them on telephone,and save time on traveling. But often you may not get as effective a feedback on the telephone as in the case of personal interviews. Further, the information you collect may be unrepresentative because all the persons you need to contact may not be on the telephone. And if some of them are residents of other towns, long distance calls will be necessary and in that case this method will prove very expensive.

   2- Personal interview:-

Interviewing is an art and will demand intelligence, patience, Fact and courtesy on your part. Even though you need one type of data, remember that all individuals cannot be dealt with in an identical manner. You need to be shrewd, observant and sensitive to the reactions of person you are interviewing. You should be quick to readjust your approach and attitude to suit each case. You must first secure a person's attention, excite his interest and establish a rapport, he must open out to you and cooperate in giving you the information you want. And all this depends on your own knack of handling people.
