emmelinemayOk, so once I get a job interview, I seem to do pretty well. I read all about the company on their website beforehand where possible, and I'm smiley and bubbly and professional. I think carefully about their questions and answer them with a mixture of honesty and I'M REALLYGOODness.
I generally get pretty good feedback from interviews, but I'm not actually getting any jobs. I think one of the places I fall down on is asking questions.
They always ask you if you have any questions about the company or the role, and my mind just goes BLANK. I can never think of any good questions to ask.
So. What are good questions to ask? What should I avoid asking?

Date: 2008-05-22 10:46 am (UTC)We've been interviewing people, and I like that as a question from a potential candidate.
The one that amused me most, and left me feeling like I'd been interviewed instead, was one candidate who asked me what it was that kept me with the company (as I've been here nearly 10 years).
