Interview Skills
(Fox News) - Caroline Kennedy is trying to make the delicate transition from an intensely private life to public service. She is actively lobbying to replace Senator Hillary Clinton, who is slated to become secretary of state. So Kennedy gave a series of interviews Saturday, but at times appeared uncomfortable and even agitated.
The New York Daily News reports she "rarely made eye contact. Her speech was often punctuated with extra 'you knows' and 'ums.'" And The New York Times' transcript reveals she said "you know" a total of 138 times... and at one point 12 times in less than a minute.
She also got testy when The Times' reporters questioned her about the moment she decided she wanted to be a senator. She turned to them and said, "Have you guys ever thought about writing for, like, a woman's magazine or something?"
When asked what she had against women's magazines she responded: "Nothing at all, but I thought you were the crack political team here."
