Title: Interview Questionaire
Post by: Graham Lee on May 03, 2008, 11:16:57 PM
I think it may be a good idea to come up with a standard questionaire for people that we Interview & then we can ask them more questions after the initial few questions.
So what questions shall we put down for everyone to answer?
Sabina's Interview starts from Monday & at the moment we only have a few questions.

Is it possible to cut & paste as we go so that at the end we end up with at least 10 questions to start the Interviews off with?

1, What road led you into balloon modelling, how & what gave you the passion.
