This article focuses on the interviewer's role in obtaining access to an elite respondent through a gatekeeper and considers the characteristics of interviewers that may make some more successful than others in circumventing gatekeepers. Analysis of data from a national survey of physicians suggests that experienced interviewers have greater success than inexperienced interviewers in bypassing gatekeepers. These findings persist after taking into account the number of interviewing hours and the portion of the field period worked, two considerations that have been neglected in previous investigations of interviewer effects.
