How do I cite a personal interview in the body of a paper?

Yes, you do have to cite it in the text.  Use the last name of the person you interviewed.  "Hundreds of people attended the show (Johnson)."  That's MLA.  If it's APA, you may have to include the date as well, so (Johnson 2006).

I have had to write many of theses when i was a fast food manager.   I actually got the best tips from monster.com.  HEre they are that way you can make your way with them.  Also if you look they have examples too on www.monster.com under recommendations. \nFirst Paragraph -- Start out by specifying in what capacity and for how long you have known the person whom you are recommending. If the person is an employee or coworker, indicate the term of employment, the responsibilities of the position, and any significant projects undertaken by the individual. You may wish to include a sentence about the nature of your company and its activities. Here, you can also give a one-sentence summary or overview of your opinion of the recommended individual. \n\nSecond Paragraph -- In the next paragraph provide a more detailed evaluation of the person as an employee. Describe his or her performance on specific assignments and list any important accomplishments. What are the individual's strengths or shortcomings in the workplace? What was it like to interact with him or her? \n\nThird Paragraph -- To sum things up you can make a more broad characterization of the individual and his or her demeanor. Overall, was the person responsible, polite, warm, disagreeable, lazy, spiteful? Finally, indicate the degree to which you recommend the individual for the position she or he is seeking: without reservation, strongly, with some reservation, or not at all. \n\nBefore writing the letter, you may want to ask the person for a list of his or her projects, since you probably will not be aware of all the work they've done. Finally, if you have not had much contact with the person, you may be better off declining to write the letter of recommendation, rather than putting together something vague and dispassionate.

If you're paraphrasing you put it in your own words (therefore quotation marks are not required).  You then must make a parenthetical reference (last name of author, followed by a comma, followed by a page number or date).  You must then also include a reference on a Bibliography, Reference or Works Cited page.  Make sure you use the correct formatting (this will depend on what referencing style you use--personally I prefer that my students use MLA).

You've never written an essay before and you're at the university? That seems strange. Anyway...In your introduction, you should briefly mention the three articles you are comparing and contrasting. Then, as you discuss each in the body paragraphs you can just refer to each article by the author's last name. For example, you could say, "The Smith article says that...." etc. It wouldn't hurt to add a brief appendix at the end.

You dont have to. Just cite what the journal author said. You dont have to worry about the "other" author because it wasnt from HIS work that you found your information. Just cite the author of the article YOU read.

One set of quotation marks would suffice. You just have to state your source as well as where the author quoted from.

You should mention it towards the bottom of your cover letter.  Or you can also mention it during the interview.

Yes.  First, find several good references, document them, then write it yourself.\n\nNo cheating allowed!

Obviously, no one on Yahoo Answers went along on your school field trip, so, no one here can give you any specifics for your article.\n\nSo far as format is concerned, think of a snappy-sounding "headline" for your story. Buy a newspaper or two today and look at the way the articles in a real newspaper are set up. It's pretty much like a regular essay - there's a beginning, a middle, and an end (but not a "conclusion"-sounding one).\n\nNewspaper articles always stress the five things all people want to know - the who, the what, the where, the how, and the why. If you can cover all five of those points, you'll be able to compose a good article.\n\nMake sure it is neatly typed, is spell-checked, and contains proper sentence structure. If there are quotes from anybody, make sure to include proper punctuation. And last, but not least, learn your lesson about putting off assignments till the last minute. This will backfire almost every time. Good luck!

IN TEXT - I would say "according to wikipedia's article about _______".  \n\nThere is a way to cite down at the bottom of every page on wikipedia for your bibliography. \n\nI hope I answered your question, but I was a bit unclear. \nGood luck!\n\nYou might check out the MLA handbook for references to citing as well.
