Open-Ended Interviews

The researchers have provided a clear reason where they have conducted their study by choosing a single metropolitan hospital in UK and recruited their participants from that area that aimed to acquire perceptions from the participants about dignity in a healthcare setting. At the same time, determine the participants experiences in a changing cultural attitude for older people. (words 58)

As an Accounting major, I am very interested and have become fond of learning about the varying business aspects within the sports industry. As a result, I decided to conduct my interview with a professional that is associated with the business operations of athletics. The person that I interviewed was Dawn Reynolds, the Senior Associate Athletic Director for Business and Finance here at the University of Miami. After initially getting in contact with Ms. Reynolds a few weeks ago, I was finally able to meet with her briefly and conduct my interview on November 30, 2010, in room 261 in the Hecht Athletics Center. Just to give a bit of background information about Ms. Reynolds, she is from Elmira, New York and now

During interview with Hildreth (In-Person Interview, 2015) he notes that his vocational/ rehabilitation program works with between 15-20% of the clients of North West Ohio Psychiatric Hospital. Hildreth (2015) notes that some of his clients work in the vocational program for a shorter time such as a month, while others have been in the program for over a decade (i.e. forensic clients who are NGRI Not Guilty for Reason of Insanity). The first step for entering this program is a referral from a treatment team on one of the psychiatric units when deemed appropriate, and as a good candidate of the program.

We are going to look at the use of interviewing techniques by those who investigate. As a result of interviews conducted after accidents and criminal offenses, the interviewer must be able to analyze witness statements in order to translate witness observations into facts and create logic from confusion. The interviewer must have an understanding of those factors that affect witness reporting. The gathering of witness information comprises about 50 percent of the investigating technique, the remaining 50 percent hinges on the ability of the interviewer to analyze and apply his or her knowledge to the sometimes

There are many different types of questions to prepare before interviewing a CEM candidate; for instance, questions relating to clarifiers, disqualifiers, skill level determiner, future focused (situational), past focused (behavioral), and finally, questions relating to organization fit (Aamodt, 2016, p. 142-143). To better explain, an example of a clarifying question would be, ‘John, I see you have experience as an art instructor at Largo High school, and you listed that you have worked with a variety of paint pigments, can you specify which ones they were exactly?’ In addition, another example of a clarifying question is ‘John, you stated in your resume that you were relieved of your position at Hobby Lobby for extensive discounting, can

The data collection was done in two phases. Focus groups and individual semi-structured interviews were organized. In the first phase two focus groups that involved nine of the healthcare providers were conducted in November and December of 2009. The researchers incorporated this phase to pinpoint the most important topics to observe during the main stage of the research study. The second phase integrated the individual semi-structured interviews that ranged from February to September of 2010 and consisted of the remaining 25 healthcare providers that cared for patients with cachexia. That study stated that all of the interviews were digitally recorded and transcribed into the exact same words of the individual to be analyzed. The researchers

Although not all, it may be safe to say most interviews (both structured and unstructured) make wide use of open-ended questions. This is because open-ended questions provide more in-depth information from candidates, and also allow them to expand on answers in their own words. On the other hand, closed questions only have fixed or predetermined answers to choose from. Therefore, even in a structured interview, open-ended questions would be able to be used (and would likely be preferred). However, in a highly-structured interview, interviewers would be limited in their ability to probe or ask follow-up questions. It is certainly possible to use a mixture of closed and open-ended questions in an interview, although this could be confusing to

telephonic interview with Mrs. Alessandra Costa. I didn't receive a call from her last week

Trier-Bieniek (2012) and Tan et al. (2014) noted that telephone interviews can be a tool to collect data. Telephone interviews will occur after a participant returns the signed informed consent form. The telephone interview will consist of eight interview questions (see Appendix B). I will adhere to the interview protocol (see Appendix A). By adhering to the interview protocol (see Appendix A), all interviews will occur in a like manner by answering each question in sequentially. Edwards and Holland (2013) and Ritchie et al. (2013) noted that high quality recordings of interviews are useful in the data collection process to facilitate the ease of transcriptions. To transcribe the exact information discussed during the semistructured interview, I will listen to a digital recording of each interview session while

Conducting interviews is fundamental as a case manager. In order to understand more about good interviewing, I decided to watch an interview about an addict mother conducted by Dr. Phil. While watching this interview, I made some notes on attitudes and characteristics that I considered important for good interviewing. The characteristics will be presented in the following paragraphs.

The benefit of an organization to fill attractive job roles with people from within the organization mainly comes down to trust. An organization is more likely to trust someone from within who has shown he/she can do tasks correctly and is highly adaptable. It’s more cost-effective and less time-consuming to transition current employees to new roles than to bring in new employees.

Finally, future research should compare behavioral and situational interviews for assessing personality. There are reasons why these two interview formats may be differentially effective for assessing personality. For example, behavioral interviews should be effective for evaluating personality because traits influence behavior. It is also likely that personality influences intentions, and thus situational interviews could be useful for measuring personality.

I feel that it was very obvious by my behavior at the meeting that interacting and being candid with Amanda makes me incredibly uncomfortable, and that is definitely on me; I wont deny that I have confrontation issues especially when it comes to her. I will do my best to be respectful of her wishes. I acknowledge that I have a bias and I believe that she, as a human being, deserves to be listened to and respected.

To answer my research question, I chose semi-structured in-depth interviews because it particularly lends itself to exploring challenging and complex life situations such as the return to work following parental leave. According to Valerie Yow, “the recorded in-depth interview can offer answers to questions that no other methodology can provide” (Yow 2005, 9). In her introductory chapter on in-depth interviewing, Yow specifically mentions complex decisions as a case where in-depth interviews allow us to pose questions that remain invisible in statistics and official records. Thus, while the OECD family database statistics might provide us with useful information about Hungarian mothers’ decisions concerning employment, in my research I would like to ask women to explain the various and differing factors contributing to these choices.
