Interview+Questions

When writing questions for an interview you should think about the subject of the interview and even research it if possible. When you write the questions, make sure that you are asking questions that will require a lengthy response and not a few words in response. Include below are some examples of both good and bad interview questions. Remember what is called the 5 W's and the H:
 * 1) __**Who**__: Who is involved in this story, background relevancy to the story
 * 2) __**What**__: What are you writing about. What did or will happen
 * 3) __**When**__: When did this happen or when will this happen: past, present, future
 * 4) __**Where**__: Where did it happen. Can it/is it happening elsewhere
 * 5) __**Why**__: Why is this important to me? Why should I care about this topic?
 * 6) __**How**__: Is there a cause and effect relationship that I should know about?
