An interview consent form is a legal document that informs participants about the interview process and obtains their voluntary consent to participate prior to the interview. It empowers participants to make informed choices about their participation by outlining the interview purpose, data handling, rights and withdrawal option. It is often required for academic research (for dissertations) and for professional interviews (for journalism).

Clearly explain the interview’s purpose, scope and key details for participants in plain language, avoiding jargon and complex terms. Emphasize that participation is voluntary and individuals can withdraw at any time. Use clear headings, formatting and bullet points for easy navigation.
