The interview is a very frequently used tool of communication—not only as part of the process of selecting someone to do a job, but in a host of other ways. Managers and officials need above all things, information, which is often in the possession of subordinate staff; sometimes staff members break company rules or regulations or develop personal problems which affect their job performance; at other times, senior executives make decisions which need to be explained to other staff who have to carry them out. Most interviews take place in private on a one-to-one basis between interviewer and interviewee.

Perhaps the best way to consider the interview is as a transaction, from which both the interviewer and interviewee gain something. For example, in a job interview the employer is 'selling' salary, prospects, working conditions and fringe benefits in order to 'buy' hard work, specialist skills, loyalty and integrity. Likewise the job applicant offers his инструментskill and experience in return for a satisfying, rewarding and challenging job, or, more accurately, career.
