Questions That You Should Ask Your Interviewer
Just like you will be fielding questions from your interviewer, it is best to ask a few of your own. It shows that you are genuinely interested in working there, and that you have some concerns of your own. It also shows that you feel relatively certain that this is the place for you.
Asking the right questions to your prospective employer will show him/her that you are serious in you efforts to work for their company, and that you are an organized individual. You should steer clear of asking any personal questions or any questions that are not directly job related.
If you wish, you may jot down some of the answers that you are given for reference later on. Keep your questions simple and polite. Make sure that you are asking direct questions about the job and/or work environment.
Here are some questions that you should ask your prospective employer:
1. Why is this position available right now?
2. How many times has this position been filled in the past 5 years?
3. What should the new person do that is different from the last person that had this position?
4. What would you most like to see done in the next 6 months?
5. What are the most difficult problems that this jobs entails?
6. How much freedom do I have in the decision making process?
7. What are my options for advancement?
8. How has this company succeeded in the past?
9. What changes do you envision in near future for this company?
10. What do you think constitutes success in this job?
If you are asked your experience and/or previous work experience, be prepared to answer quickly and explain how long you have been doing that type of work and give a brief description of your duties. Your Enthusiasm: Employers want to know that you are willing and eager to be a part of their company. Dont volunteer your personal opinions to your interviewer about any subjects unless you are asked. If your company wants you to paste your resume, dont send attachments because your email will be deleted right away. If you can, give an example of their work so that you will appear more sincere. |
