In Interview Etiquettes Tips
 Rated by 1 users

Noted people sometimes subject them­selves to interviews for the good of their people. These men-of high positions who may be the doyens or the undisputed leaders in their fields have certain qualities and glamour about them, and it is for the interviewer to respect this glamour and preserve this image. It is unthinkable that an interviewer who approaches a certain expert or a certain V.I.P. would be asking questions to get enlightened on things. Rather, such an interviewer has to be well-acquaint- i ed with the topic that he is going to discuss at the interview and only the most difficult or most essential details and mysteries should be sought to be unravelled by the interviewer. Politeness in the inter­viewer and proper respect for the personality that is to be interviewed are the needed virtues in him. Moreover, since the interviewer is already aware of the background of the great person, he should help him to open up and if the interviewer leads the line, the great personality may disclose the most important facets' of his genius which, normally, he may feel shy to bring out openly.

No disrespect should ever be shown to any dignitary and it would be the duty of the interviewer to keep his own personality in the background. The idea is that the image of the personality under inter­view has to be enhanced and there should be no occasion for cross-currents of answers and repartees to mar that picture. The interviewer has sincerely to experience this greatness before he can project it properly to others, and it would be good etiquette to merge himself fully with this personality for the time being to hunt for the coveted treasure. It would be bad manners to give importance to the questions and not to their answers.
