An informational interview is a great idea to undertake if you are just starting out and are not really sure what job suits you. Another reason to conduct an informational interview is when you are thinking of changing your career path and as such do not know much yet about the industry you want to break into. It is also a means to expand your network and talk to all kinds of people in a specific business area.
By conducting an informational interview, you are in effect preparing yourself (1) for a better job, (2) for better chances in a new field, or (3) simply improving your current ‘market worth’ by networking and learning new things.
Following are some simple steps on how to conduct a successful informational interview.

* Prepare for the informational interview and list all the details you want to obtain about your preferred industry.
* List the people you already know that are in the field you are interested in — friends, family, relatives, former professors, and others. Afterwards, work your way up to public relations officers, organizational directors, and others.
* Arrange the interview by phone, email, letter, or though someone you know who works in the same office as the one you want to interview.
* Prior the informational interviews, take the time to read up on the job or industry you are keen on so that you do not go into the interview with absolutely no knowledge of the topic. Make a list of questions you would like to ask.
* D-day is finally here. Conduct the interview with ease and grace. Dress nicely; be punctual, polite, and professional. Follow the questions you have made but also allow some spontaneous discussion between you and the person you’re interviewing.
* After the interview, record everything you have learned in a journal or blog. Don’t forget to send a thank you note within one week of the interview.
