Interviews may be more or less formal. In highly formal interviews participants tend to stay closely within social and professional roles. They do little to acknowledge each other as unique individuals. Instead, the interviewer acts as the potential employer, the corrective supervisor, or whatever role is pertinent to the type of interview being conducted. The interviewee also acts from a defined
role: prospective employee, repentant subordinate, and so forth. The content of highly formal interviews tends to follow a standard format, often one that the interviewer has written to structure the interaction. Nonverbal communication provides further clues to formality: clothes, a formal meeting room, stilted postures, and a stiff handshake are all signs of formality. In contrast, informal interviews are more relaxed, personal, and flexible. The interviewer attempts to engage the interviewee as an individual, not just a person in a general role. In turn, the interviewee tends to communicate with the interviewer in more individualistic ways. Typically, informal interviews aren't as rigidly structured as formal interviews. The interviewer may have a list of standard topics (either memorized or written down), but those provide only guidelines, not a straightjacket for communication. Either participant may introduce unusual topics, and they may devote more time than planned to issues that arise. Informal interviews often include nonverbal cues such as smiling, relaxed postures, casual surroundings, and informal dress. The author suggests that a. formal interviewers often deviate from prepared questions. b. informal interviews may be less stressful than formal ones. c. time frames may be of greater importance in informal interviews. d. informal interviewers tend to treat all interviewees alike.

Read each paragraph and answer the questions that follow by choosing the letter of the correct response.
(I) Several circumstances can serve as barriers to effective goal setting and planning. (2) The first one is inappropriate goals, which come in many forms.(3) In one instance, paying a large dividend1 to stockholders may be inappropriate if it comes at the expense of research and development. (4) Goals may also be inappropriate if they are unattainable. (5) Second, and in some settings, an improper reward system acts as a barrier to goal setting and planning. (6) For example, people may inadvertently^2 be rewarded for poor goal-setting behavior or go unrewarded or even be punished for proper goal-setting behavior. (7)A case of this would be a manager who sets a goal of decreasing turnover3 next year. (8) If turnover is decreased by even a fraction, the manager can claim success and perhaps be rewarded for the accomplishment whereas the manager who attempts to decrease turnover by 5 percent but actually achieves a decrease of only 4 percent may receive a smaller reward because of his or her failure to reach the goal. (9) Third, the nature of an organization’s environment is also a barrier to effective goal setting and planning. (10) Rapid change, technological innovation, and intense competition can each increase the difficulty of an organization’s ability to accurately assess future opportunities and threats. (II) For example, when an electronics firm like IBM develops a long-range plan, it tries to take into account how much technological innovation is likely to occur during that interval. (12) But forecasting such events is extremely difficult and the manager who attempts to set goals and to plan in this rapidly changing environment faces a truly formidable4 task. The topic sentence of this paragraph is a. sentence 1. b. sentence 2. c. sentence 3. d. sentence 4.
