Interview Tips - Asking Questions
- Be prepared to ask questions of the hiring manager during the interview that are based on your research of the company and industry. Insightful and pertinent questions will demonstrate that you've done your homework and that you're serious about the position. And your questions will help both of you determine if you are the right match for the job. A good idea is to review the website prior to your interview.
- Know what questions NOT to ask. Don't inquire about salary, vacation time, PTO, benefits, working remotely, or your office space at the first interview. These questions are appropriate only after the hiring manager has expressed serious interest in offering you the position.
Here are some questions you might ask:
· What would I be expected to accomplish in this role?
· What is the current status of the project/assignment?
· What are the greatest challenges in this position?
· How do you think I fit the position?
