person who conducts an interview
A person who asks the questions in an interview, for example when you apply for a job or talk on TV.
Padrão de uso:
the interviewer asks [someone] [questions]
Erro comum:
Learners often confuse "interviewer" and "interviewee". Remember: the interviewer asks the questions; the interviewee answers the questions. Another mistake is dropping the "-er" ending and saying *"the interview asked me"*, which is incorrect — it should be "the interviewer asked me".
