unstructured interviews

Unstructured interviews are a flexible way of talking with someone to gather information or understand their experiences. Instead of following a strict set of questions, the interviewer has a general idea of topics to discuss but allows the conversation to flow naturally. This approach helps uncover deeper insights, opinions, or feelings because it adapts to the interviewee’s responses. It’s often used in research or recruitment to get a more genuine, detailed understanding of a person’s perspectives without being limited by a fixed questionnaire.
