The subject of my interview was my uncle, Richard Gil.
He didn’t have very much to say, but still answered all the questions in a clear and easy to understand way. In addition, he was very concise and made an effort to stay on track when speaking.
I learned through this interview that transitioning from one question to the next can be very difficult, and planning out transitions is probably a good thing to do before interviewing someone. Also, I learned that there are many different ways people can answer questions, and none of them are good or bad. If someone talks a lot during an interview, that’s just how they answer questions. If they don’t talk much, that’s OK too. In general, the interviewing process is different for everyone and there’s no right or wrong way to interview someone or answer questions.
