Good interviewing techniques:
I searched up some good interviewing techniques on the Web and what I read was that to conduct a good interview, you need to push forward on the questions you begin with rather than simply receiving an answer and moving to a different question. For example, if asking about an event that changed your interviewee's life, don't just ask him what it was. Also ask him when did it happen and how it changed his life or also if he felt he could have done without the event. Also, if there are any tough questions you'd want to ask your interviewee, then ask that question in the beginning rather than the end so the interviewee can relax as the questions he is later asked can easily be answered as compared to the ones he was asked in the beginning.

I chose to interview my friend Miguel because like many friends here in my University, he's is from a different background and he is one of the few people I know most well enough personally but enough to make a story out of him so he was my choice.
