What makes a great interview?

Conversation- Make sure that you make the person comfortable and make it seem like a conversation but its still professional. Stay in one solid topic that way you know what you want the person to say and you want to get from them. Make sure that your interview is loud and clear and you make eye contact that way you know that they are serious about the interview and you know that they are being honest.



What i think that is important from this interview is that the lady that is being interviewed she knows what shes talking about and she is keeping eye contact and tahts good because she knows whats shes saying she feels comfortable, and she seems like shes telling the truth.

Interviewer: Kate, how are you connected with the Great Southern California ShakeOut?
Kate Long: The OES Earthquake and Tsunami Program helped developed this scenario, and OES is of course using this scenario in Golden Guardian and for the Great Southern California ShakeOut.

Interviewer: How is OES making use of the science that goes into this scenario?
Kate Long: The exciting thing about the science in the ShakeOut scenario is the enthusiasm that we’re getting from all sectors in terms of participating in the Great Southern California ShakeOut. It’s really amazing that people are responding to how important the situation is based on the detail they know. We’ve been telling them for 30 years about the probability and about what to do, but having the science is really getting people inspired to do something.

Interviewer: So, Kate, the fact that this scenario is based on real science has certainly made a difference, you would say?
Kate Long: The fact that the scenario is based on science has made a big difference. The Southern California ShakeOut is really meant to reach the public, business, schools, people who don’t usually participate in Golden Guardian. And knowing the details of the ShakeOut is really making a difference in people’s excitement and interest in getting involved, drilling, participating and getting prepared.

Interviewer: Looking at this great event for Southern California, what inspires you the most about the ShakeOut or what are you the most proud about?
Kate Long: I’m most proud that the Great Southern California ShakeOut has brought together so many different organizations from government to business to organizations; the steering committee is working with county affiliates. From every sector of society, people are joining together in ways they haven’t before, and I think the thing that will make us more prepared, as Southern Californians, is understanding that we’re all in this together.

Interviewer: Absolutely. Thank you, Kate, for your time.
Kate Long: Thank you.



Emotion-I think that one interview design principle that all interviewers always have to have is Emotion, I think that all interviews should have different emotions rather than just keeping it one emotion whether its sad, boring, interested, or etc. keeping many emotions or showing many emotions always



What i think that is important is that Beyonce is really enjoying the interview and she is being serious but at the same time she is being funny.


Biography - I think that the person show talk about the background information and the though of what the topic is.
