Interviewing tips

Ask open-ended questions, e.g. “Do you use whatsapp?” vs. “What apps do you use?” Closed-ended questions are easy to answer, but open- ended questions give more information You can start with closed-ended questions to put the subject at ease, then ask open-ended questions

Interviewing tips

Observe/clarify terminology (reflects mental model) e.g. “I click on the snowflake icon” vs. “I click on the white thingy”. “I use the dial” vs. “I use the wheel”. Paraphrase and summarize “Ok, so you don’t use this feature because…”

Interviewing tips

Don’t ask a leading question, i.e. question that suggests the answer by wording or tone “I’m sure you’ll find this interesting…” Indicate understanding rather than agreement “This company’s products suck…” Keep the focus on the interviewee You’re trying to imagine what it’s like to be in their place
