Interview Questions That Candidates Should Ask
Having questions for each interviewer is essential to a successful interview process. Sometimes, interviewers have no prepared questions and are on the schedule to only answer questions. For this reason, it’s imperative to have prepared questions to ask each person you interview with. Please note that the questions should be different for each person, since the role will interact with each position a little bit differently. Below are questions you may want to incorporate in your next interview:
- What goals would this position achieve at the end of the first six months?
- Picture yourself giving me a great review on my one year anniversary–what did I accomplish?
- How will this role impact you and the success of this division/department?
- What can I do in this role to help you succeed and exceed the goals for your position?
- What traits did the prior person have that you would like to see in the new person?
- What traits did the prior person have that limited them from becoming more successful?
These are just a few of the questions you may want to consider incorporating into your next interview. Well thought out questions that indicate research and desire will help you present yourself in the best possible light.
