Did you know experienced interviewers usually leave 5-10 minutes at the end of the interview for you to ask questions ON PURPOSE? In short, questions you ask the interviewer convey your (1) Enthusiasm for the role, (2) Critical thinking skills, and (3) Level of preparation. Not to mention it helps YOU screen your future employer! In order to impress the interviewer(s), the answers to your questions can’t be easily found online and should be specific to the interviewer themselves. Furthermore, you also want to avoid coming off as robotic or overly-rehearsed since the interviewer might think you just memorized a bunch of questions and are asking for the sake of asking questions.

Ask the Interviewer Thoughtful Questions

pro tip you always want to follow this question with how do these metrics tie into those of the teams i would work closely with benjamin franklin once famously said three things are certain in life death taxes and the interviewer asking you do you have any questions for me at the end of job interviews death and taxes i can't really help you with yet but there are three very good reasons to ask your interviewer thoughtful questions first is a very simple way to show your enthusiasm for the job second you get to showcase critical thinking skills and finally these questions are a great way for you to screen your future employer in this video not only will i share 5 brilliant questions to ask your interviewer but i'll also give practical tips to help you avoid coming off as robotic and overly rehearsed let's get started hi friends welcome back to channel if you're new here my name is jeff come for the historically accurate quotes and stay for the legitimate interview tips you can start off by

Ask about the interviewer

asking a question about the interviewer themselves this acts as a transition to get the interviewer talking after having them mainly listen to you for the last 30 minutes and instead of asking something generic like how do you like working here try i see you've been an account manager covering the retail sector for the past three years is your experience so far what you expected jeff did the exact same thing actually by just adding the job title and the number of years worked you've changed this question enough to go from something you've clearly memorized for this occasion to a tailored question for the interviewer and finding this information on linkedin takes less than five minutes uh there's no way something like that makes an actual difference check out what mark cuban said about this i like to say you know the only stupid questions are the one you don't once you don't ask and that's not right because the questions you ask tell everybo tell me tell whoever more about you than anything else you do in particular tells me about your preparation the biggest mistake you make is to ask questions you can find the answer to online and as you'll soon see the theme of this video is to ask questions only the interviewer the person sitting across from you can answer the second question to ask the

Tell me about a recent hire

interviewer is if you think back to a recent hire that impressed you what characteristics did they have what did they do this is an amazing question to ask because it prompts an interviewer to think about a specific person and provide concrete examples making it much more meaningful than something like what advice do you have for someone like me pro tip note that what the interviewer says here and see if you have any relevant experiences you can bring up in the next interview they've basically just told you the qualities they look for in new hires third question you want

Which teams will I be working with?

to ask in all your interviews who will i be working with most closely which teams will be working with there are actually two reasons this is a must ask first is a selfish reason by knowing which teams you'll end up working with you might be able to see if the role aligns with your long term career goals the second reason is that this question allows for natural follow-ups making it more of a two-way conversation than a robotic question answer you mentioned the marketing team gives heavy input on the content we share with clients how is the dynamic between these two teams the

How will my success be measured?

fourth question you must ask the interviewer how will my success be measured for the first one or two quarters because nothing gets a hiring manager more excited than new hires demonstrating they are data driven and results oriented pro tip you always want to follow this question with how do these metrics tie into those of the teams i would work closely with this shows the interviewer you are already thinking about the implications of those success metrics and gives you more inside information on how the teams work

Do you have any hesitations about hiring me?

together the fifth question to ask is also the scariest to ask as interviewee and that is do you have any reservations or hesitations about hiring me we are scared of asking this question because we're not sure what to expect but if you think about it there are only three possible answers the interviewer can give you one good the politician answer which is something like um nope it was great chatting with you nothing jumped out so far we'll reach out next steps great no harm done and you showed confidence in asking this question second possibility the interviewer actually replies with something you can't really defend against you're missing a hard skill or lacking in years of experience do not panic acknowledge this is an area you're still working on then highlight transferable skills that apply to your situation more often than not the way you handle their objection matters a lot more than the objection itself not what you said just the way you said it door number three you may be told something the interviewer straight up misunderstood perfect this is your chance to demonstrate humility and turn a b-plus interview into an a sorry about that i didn't communicate this very clearly just now but interestingly i do have experience with retail export clients during my time with sheehan i was actually responsible for while you

Key Takeaways
