How I Interview My Interviews: A Chat-based Research Method

Abstract

You’ve just wrapped up 5+ interviews. You’re exhausted — but now the real work begins: analysis Traditionally, that means spreadsheets, transcripts, and long hours trying to connect the dots. You get answers to what you asked, but what about the insights that didn’t fit into a question? The moments you didn’t expect, or forgot to follow up on? In this session, I’ll introduce a chat-based analysis method I’ve developed that allows you to revisit each interview in a completely new way, without recontacting a single participant. It’s fast, surprisingly intuitive, and designed to surface what traditional methods often miss.
