How important are my questions at the interview? For many interviewers your questions are at least as important as your answers!! Tips- • Ask specific questions about the job..what is an average day..how do you measure success… etc.. • Your question should always indicate that you have researched the Organization. • The question should never raise barriers to getting a job offer. Example - " Would I really have to work weekends?” or “What are the hours?” • Always have at least 5-7 questions prepared
Do NOT ask: "What does your company do?" (You should have researched this)
Things you should know before going into an interview • The company's line of business/ business category • Date the company was established- Recent/current events. • Approximate Revenue last year • Are they a regional, national or international company • How is the company organized • Career tracks mentioned on the company's web site
