by Rob (Birkbeck College, University of London, UK) Millar, Valerie Crute, Owen Hargie
Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Human Resource Management series
Hardback
Description
This book, first published in 1992, presents a detailed, informed and informative account of research, theory and practice in interviewing.
As a single source for practitioners, it focuses on the professional practice of interviewing as a strategy for achieving specific objectives.
As well as providing reviews of recent research in interviewing, it includes practical examples of interviewing in many different contexts.
The authors, all of whom have wide experience of interviewing, draw on a wealth of information and insight acquired during their work.
They examine the definitions and purposes of interviewing and then describe the main settings within which it takes place - counselling, selection, research, medical and appraisal.
Taking a social interactional model of interviewing, they discuss the main components of the activity: person perception; interviewer goals; interview structures and stages; effective interviewing skills; and the interviewee's perspective on the interview process.
Examples are used to illustrate particular issues and to highlight their relevance to practice.
The authors also consider important ethical and professional problems which may crucially affect the practice of interviewing.
This book should be of interest to professionals and students in psychology, health, counselling, human resource management and business.
