The use of the interview as a technique in the qualitative methods, such as CVs, has varied between the academic researchers and experts.thus, some aspects of this use such as the choice of the mediater, the selection of the research and material support for the field work have been similar.but some others have been different such as the choice of the subject matter and its main questions.and also, the timing devoted to expertise study.most of time, all these things can not help to run interviews that lead to "cognitive satisfaction" compared to independent academic researches. thus, studies of expertise and the constraints of the sponsoring institutions make the its researches based on the technique of interviewing just some kind of diversification of scientific research techniques. In general, the academic researcher has the freedom to act in his results which is not allowed for the expert researcher working for a sponsoring institution
