1. Be quiet and listen, because you have to get the other person to talk. You have to be an active listener and pay attention to what they are saying so that you can genuinely interact with them.
2. Looking good is of utmost importance because it's the visual medium. You have to be appealing, confident, comfortable in your skin and pleasant so that the other person likes to talk to you.
3. Be honest with your questions and shoot them straight. Be genuinely interested in the answers so you can have a proper discussion. It is good for me that I know most of the people I interview.
4. You have to be completely confident no matter whom you are interviewing. If you respect yourself, then other people will respect you. Organize yourself and your agenda for the show, and give it your best shot.
5. Lastly, have fun, because talking is so much fun. Get a good sofa or couch for people to chill on. Have beverages around, as talking makes people thirsty.
