Giving an interview vs taking an interview. I saw an interesting correction that made by a non- native speaker on notebook section? Actually giving an interview or taking an interview when someone are having an interview. I did a little research on internet. Quora. Com says that interviewee should give an interview when someone was interviewed. Interviewer should take an interview because he is questioning. But I think this is not correct. Any interviewee and interviewer can be said giving an interview.and interviewer does too. When celebrities answer questions they are giving an interview, right? And interviewer offer an interview I think it is ok too. I am really confused with giving /taking an interview. How to use it correctly when specifying in interviewee or interviewer? Sorry that I don't want to point out someone's correction that is doubt but I want to know the truth if there's some offensive to someone. I apologize if it happened to offend. But you want to the answer so you won't mind it. Thanks.
