19 Interviewer Qualifications Data Collection Professionalism a confident, businesslike presentation and strong delivery are vital to encouraging respondents to participate in surveys as well as persuading respondents to complete surveys already begun Friendliness a friendly and positive approach puts the respondent at ease and relaxed enough to give thoughtful and honest answers Courtesy a courteous interviewer refuses to react negatively toward a respondent who is rude, argumentative or insincere Neutrality care must be taken not to inject bias into the survey; do not encourage or reward respondent answers Listening Skills effective listening skills will help the interviewer to address respondent objections, and properly answer questions Resilience a good interviewer does not allow the previous call to affect the next call; a rude respondent or a disappointing hang-up should not affect your approach to the next call Desire to Improve a good interviewer can honestly assess past performances, admit errors, accept and incorporate feedback and learn from mistakes Optimism an interviewer should confidently assume the respondent is interested and willing to participate in the survey Enthusiasm the interviewer s interest in the survey or lack of it will be immediately conveyed to the respondent; if the interviewer doesn t seem interested in the survey, the respondent won t either Prepared an interviewer should know the survey questions, instructions, and responses to common questions Quick Thinking anything can happen during a phone call and an interviewer must be prepared to handle any situation quickly and effectively Common Sense beyond all the training, rehearsing, and skill-building, good oldfashioned common sense is as important as anything else.
