Taking notes, however, has one big problem: the person you're interviewing often starters talking faster than you can write. You are still scribbling sentence A when he zooms into sentence B. You drop A and purse him into sentence B, meanwhile trying to hold the rest of Z in your inter ear and hoping sentence C will be a dud that you can skip it altogether, using the time to catch up. Unfortunately, you now have your subject going at a high speed. He is finally saying all the things you have been trying to cajole out of him for an hour, and saying them with what seems to be Churchillian eloquence.
That is so true. I have not done very many interview but what he say is very true on the ones I have done. The person say everything that you want them to say in about 20 sentences, also in about a minute and a half. You hear the perfect sentence for an paragraph in your essay, but by the time you get it on paper it sounds different then how the person said it. I think the reason people doing an interview does this because they think it is funny to watch.
