Eight Questions to Ask During an Interview

 

Lately, I've been getting questions from friends and colleagues about writing a resume, how to apply for jobs, what to ask employers when you are interview, and so therefore, today's posting will be about "Eight questions to ask during an interview".

These are questions that I specifically created that I believe seems suitable and appropriate for any interview. I researched & came up together with what I believe are the best eight generic questions to ask in any work-related field.

I hope you all have found this helpful and feel free to comment if you have any questions or comments! Thanks for reading!

1.      What exactly would my day-to-day responsibilities be?

-          Understand your role & tasks

2.      What are the training opportunities for training & career advancement?

-          Understand where the job might lead & what skills you might acquire

3.      What are the criteria that you are looking for in the successful candidate for this position?

-          Understand to see if your skills or qualifications meet up to the expectation and if not, how you can improve to be that candidate

4.      So how have previous ________ (workers, assistants, etc.), if so any, done things in the past before?

-          Learn how you can improve things in the future

5.      How will my leadership responsibilities and performance be measured? & by whom?

-          Understand your work ethnics in that field and know who will you report to/supervisor

6.      How do you feel that I measure up to your requirements for this position?

-          Understand where you stand and what you can do better

7.      When can I expect to hear from you?

-          It’s alright to ask your interviewer before you leave when you’ll be contacted again. You may not receive any notification as soon as possible but it is good to keep in mind when you can expect their call/email.

8.      Are there any questions I can answer for you?

-          Before you leave, you want to make sure that you’ve covered everything about the job position. You should also ask your interviewer one more time if they have any remaining questions left.
