Interview

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

In a communication context, an interview is a structured conversation in which one or more people ask questions to gather information, evaluate a candidate, or explore a topic in depth. Interviews can be formal or informal and occur across many settings — job recruitment, journalism, research, and broadcast media. Effective interviewers prepare focused questions, actively listen, and manage time to cover key areas. Interviewees benefit from clear, structured answers that directly address what is being asked.

Unlike .pptx files, which open in the editor, a .ppsx starts the presentation immediately when double-clicked. This makes it ideal for distributing finalized presentations to audiences who only need to view the content. The .ppsx format replaced the older .pps format introduced in Office 2007.
