Hi Don I agree with you I don't think he really need an expert in that area, most cases you don't need but this is an additionla information you can get that will be helpful to verify if you are not getting somethign you don't want. Analysis from the body language, way of dressing, etc. is not the core of the interview is only an additoinal information you can get. When you have 500 persons to interview, and few time and infromation from them, and you want ot find the most adequate to your needs, that analysis can do the difference. There are situations and there are situations. You really don't need a dba to create msaccess database, but evn then can help I think is better don't understimate the expertise in one area, but the true is that there are very very few experts in that area. Do you remember the silence of the lambs, well there is an statistics that say there is one person like him per million. I don't remember exacty where I got that informatoin, but a simple analysis shows this don't seem an exxageration. :) >I like these - and many of the other responses.
