Use Generalities as an Opportunity to Ask for a Specific Example

Probing Strategies

How would you probe when the interviewee gives general responses to your questions? Consider Probes For A Specific Example: "Tell me what you did when you helped a specific person get organized?" "Describe what you did to make one meeting really effective for getting organized?" "Give me an example of a time when a good worker’s complaint helped you improve organization?" "When did you use the computer system to improve organization?"
