Open Vs. Closed Questions
Asking open-ended questions is the best way to get the response you are looking for. For instance asking “do you enjoy your work?” is going a simple yes or no answer. But if you asking “what are you working on at the moment?” this is an open-ended question and it will give you a better answer.

Keep your questions short and to the point. If you give a long question, the subject may forget what you are asking about. After you finished asking the questions, stop talking. Don’t make a noise such as yeah, or okay, or hmm. You can nod in gesture to give a signal to the subject that you understand what the subject answering about.

 Give Them the Final Word
At the end of interview ask if you have missed anything. Sometimes the best information will be something you had not thought to ask.
