WHAT ARE THE QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK DURING INTERVIEW.

During interview the candidate usually is given time to ask questions. Most of the candidates  do answer that they do not have questions to ask. Its not true for most of them but its only because they  are afraid or not prepared to ask or they do not know what to ask. The following are best questions to ask and that will make  them know that you are real prepared;
  • How would you describe the responsibilities of the position?
  • How would you describe a typical week/day in this position?
  • Is this a new position? If not, what did the previous employee go on to do?
  • What is the company's management style?
  • Who does this position report to? If I am offered the position, can I meet him/her?
  • How many people work in this office/department?
  • How much travel is expected?
  • Is relocation a possibility?
  • What is the typical work week? Is overtime expected?
  • What are the prospects for growth and advancement?
  • How does one advance in the company?
  • Are there any examples?
  • What do you like about working here?
  • What don't you like about working here and what would you change?
  • Would you like a list of references?
  • If I am extended a job offer, how soon would you like me to start?
  • What can I tell you about my qualifications?
  • When can I expect to hear from you?
  • Are there any other questions I can answer for you?

Interview Questions NOT to Ask
  • What does this company do? (Do your research ahead of time!)
  • If I get the job when can I take time off for vacation? (Wait until you get the offer to mention prior commitments)
  • Can I change my schedule if I get the job? (If you need to figure out the logistics of getting to work don't mention it now...)
  • Did I get the job? (Don't be impatient. They'll let you know.)

    GET TO KNOW THE 5 HARDESTINTERVIEW QUESTIONS


    1. Tell me about yourself.


    Sounds easy, right? But be ready to give the hiring manager a two-minute answer about the kind of worker you are…they don’t need to know your life history or a laundry list of your hobbies and activities. To answer this question well, stay focused on the things you have done professionally that you feel passionately about. Use examples to back it up. Your answer should tell the hiring manager that you are great at your job, you love your work, and are therefore the best person to hire.


    2. Where do you see yourself in ten years?


    To answer this, focus on what you think is an achievable career goal within this specific organization and then explain how you’ll get there.


    3. What is your greatest weakness? Again, frame your response as it relates to the work you do.


    Be honest, but show how you have worked or are working to overcome the weakness. Some career coaches recommend that you answer with a strength instead, like I try too hard to please everyone. This can work, but you have to make sure you sound authentic. If it sounds too good to be true, the hiring manager may feel deceived. And hiring managers don’t hire people who have deceived them.


    4. What salary are you looking for? Questions about salary are tricky.


    You don’t want to name a price that is higher than they can offer, but you don’t want to go too low and give the impression that you are not worth a good wage. One way to handle this question is to ask what their range is. Another way to handle this is to know going into the interview what people in comparable jobs, with similar education and experience are earning in your area.


    5. Why do you want to work for us?


    This is your chance to show them what you know about the company, the industry, and the job. Show them how your professional beliefs align with their company mission and values statements. Explain why you feel passionately about this particular industry. Highlight your qualifications and areas of expertise that match or exceed the job requirements listed in the job description.
