It should work great for interviews. If she's doing anything super important, she could run 4 channels, the internal mics with the unit on a table and also have two separate mics plugged in the dual 1/4" - xlr inputs. Perhaps lav mics for each person. If more than 2 people, could have up to 4 different mics going at once.

Its not as basic as some other recorders and takes a good 30 seconds to start up/load before you can begin recording.
