Face-to-face interviews are one of the main methods used to collect quantitative data. During these interviews, the interviewer communicates directly with the respondent and their questions are based on a strictly structured questionnaire.

These interviews can be conducted at the respondents’ place of work or residence, on the street or in certain points of sale.
