GOMES, Ingrid Meireles et al. Use of external interviewers in qualitative research: action plan. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.44, pp.235-244. ISSN 1695-6141.

Qualitative research has been growing, bringing along the need to think methodologically about it, in order to avoid biases and ethical dilemmas. Thus, it is necessary to think through its steps, among them the collection of data through interviews. Therefore, this study aims to introduce an action plan that guides the training and monitoring of external interviewers in conducting qualitative research. It describes the action plan proposed, which consists of five moments: feasibility; selection; negotiation; training; and monitoring. And, with the purpose of illustrating its practical use, authors' experience in using the proposed action plan is described, indicating the benefits and difficulties found. It is concluded that employing an external person to perform data collection in a qualitative research is a facilitator, although it represents a challenge and requires researcher's dedication and expertise. the need for greater financial incentives to conduct this kind of research is also recognized, as well as researchers' commitment to pursue funding sources.
