Synopsis
Interviewing: Speaking, Listening, and Learning for Professional Life is an introduction to the theory and practice of interviewing, a topic of high interest to students as they prepare for a work life outside of college. What sets the book apart is its careful introduction of skills common to successful practitioners, followed by the various contexts in which interviewing occurs. The focus is on three main skills in Part One, leading with listening, turning to questioning, and followed by their unique treatment of framing. The contexts of interviewing are thoroughly explored in Part Two, with an exceptionally strong chapter on employment interviewing. Part Three places interviewing in a wider context, with distinctive chapters on popular culture and professional interviewing. Relentlessly student-oriented, pedagogically rich, and with well-integrated coverage of the ethical and cultural dimensions of interviewing, Anderson's Interviewing is an ideal introduction to this increasingly popular topic., In the second edition of Interviewing, experienced educators Rob Anderson and G. Michael Killenberg explain and demystify the interviewing process, offering students a practical guide to the fascinating art of asking and answering questions. Throughout, they urge students not to view interviewing as a procedure or as a collection of techniques; instead, they present the process of interviewing as a fascinating opportunity for learning through dialogue. The basic motivation for interviewing is learning something new. Each chapter features two sections: "The Basics," which describes essential skills, and "Beyond the Basics," which places them into a relevant context. Moreover, interviewing skills are clearly divided into three interrelated types: Listening, Questioning, and Framing. To highlight the practical, real-world significance of interviewing, the authors encourage students to apply their learning actively and to connect their skills with ideas from other communication, social science, and humanities courses. This student-friendly text also includes the following features: * An emphasis on how interviewing contributes to the quality of public dialogue * An integrated approach to both interviewer and interviewee roles * In-depth coverage of culture and ethics * Innovative boxed supplements, including: - "Interviewers/Interviewees in Action" boxes, featuring first-person accounts - "Trying Out Your Skills" boxes- End-of-chapter "Making Your Decision" boxes, which present interactive hypothetical situations designed to generate class discussion In addition, each chapter includes "The Interview Bookshelf," an annotated section recommending books that students will find helpful for further reading or for future interviewing-related assignments in other classes. A comprehensive online Instructor's Resource Guide is also available and provides suggestions for class activities, resources, and assignments., In the second edition of Interviewing, experienced educators Rob Anderson and G.
