There are similarities between the two approaches. Both techniques are frequently employed for gathering data. There is a distinction, though, if we look at it technically.
Explanation:
1. Direct personal contact with respondents is not possible using the questionnaire method. However, using the interview method a one on one rapport can be established and the interviewer can get detailed and information from the respondents about the topic discussed.
2. Data collection by questionnaire might be more affordable than interviewing method. Additionally, compared to the latter procedure, the former one requires less time to perform and is hassle-free.
3. A few individuals struggle to comprehend the questions clearly, leading them to select the answers at random. Some people don't even respond truthfully to the questions, which could create bias. The interviewer is physically present during the session, therefore instructions are carefully conveyed. Before submitting their responses, respondents are free to clarify any questions they may have.
