Questions To Ask During Every Job Interview

For those who don't know, today is my last day at my current job. I
start the new job on Thursday and I'm really excited about it. By
doing some research, I was able to do really well in the interview.
So now, I'd like to share a few good questions every candidate should
ask during their interview, because the only thing worse than dumb
questions is no questions.

1. "How would you describe your management style?"

This question shows you are focused on getting to know your boss.
Find out who your boss is, find out what they want, and give it to
them.

2. "Thinking back to those previously in this position, are there any
that really stand out and what made them so outstanding?"

This is a great question. It shows that you're not only interested in
obtaining the job, but you're focused on performing successfully.

3. "Are there any reservations you have about my fit for this position
that I may be able to address while I'm here?"

This is the money question. Your interviewer(s) will undoubtedly get
together afterward to discuss your candidacy for the position. If you
can give them some assurances about their concerns during the
interview, then they will go into their meeting more confident about
your fit for the position.

Now I found these questions online and I can't stress enough how
important it is to have good questions to ask your interviewer. If it
gets to the "Any questions?" and you say, "Nope," you will look like a
dunce and your job search will continue.
