a word about e-mail interviews

I've been receiving many inquiries from people wondering whether e-mail interviews are OK.

Yes.....BUT there are a few caveats.

You should try as much as possible to make it a conversation.

That means don't send 10 questions and then sit back and wait for 10 answers.

Ask 2-3 questions. Get answers. Review those answers, and then ask a few more. Ideally, you'd want this back-and-forth to continue 3 to 5 times (or sometimes more).

You should let your subject know about the process from the get-go.

Hope that helps!
