Interviewing differs from Conversation.

Interviewing is a form of oral communication involving in two parties . both of them speak from time to time and always has a purpose. It is different from conversation , because conversation can occur without the participants having any serious preconceived purpose. covversations can be aimless affairs in which neither person knows or cares when the exchange will end or exactly what topics will be covered. In the other hand the interviewer should always be acting in ways that keep the exchange moving toward the preconceived purpose.


So the interviewing is highly different than the conversation. when two people chat between floors in an elevator , freind swap jokes at a party , aboss and employees take a break around the coffee machine. Interviewing have a purpose. we can say it is between an employer and someone looking for a job. so there is a different tone between the interviewer and the interviewee. it might be formal or informal , relaxed or intense, serious or humorous . just as the fisrt stages of a date or a party and will shape what comes later.
I see that the interview is a conversation but for a specific purpose . It is kind of formal and serious for a while. But the conversation is general, no purpose happens anywhere.

Interviewing is the special kind of conversation, being more purposeful , structured, controlled and one sided than other types of two party interaction. A successful interview begins with planning phase before the parties meet. As well the conversation happened anytime donont require any guidance from one of the parties .
