What type of questions should I ask on an interview?

Answer 1

You should look up the company and ask questions about their products and/or their place in the overall market.

You sould prepare questions about the position if you need anything clarified. You can also ask questions like, "How is success measured for this position" or "What skill sets does a person need to be successful in this position" and then talk about how you meet these criteria well.

Do NOT ask about salary, benefits and other compensation until you get to the "offer" interview.

Answer 2

Having interviewed many, if you are being interviewed a good question to ask would be "is this a newly created position within the company?" If yes, then request that the interviewee elaborate on the expectations of the position that will produce the desired performance. If no then I would ask "can you tell me why the position is available?" You want to hear the person who held the position was promoted or still with the company or something postive. Not getting along with others, conflict with boss etc. should be taken into consideration.
I think it is important to ask the the interviewer to tell you about their work history with the company. Listen for how long they have been there, have they climbed the ranks, etc. Then follow up with what they like best about working there.
Ask unless you know if this person is who you would report to. If yes, ask them to share with you their management style with you. You want to get a sense of whether they are relateable to staff.
Last, if you are able I always love to hear if it is possible to spend a few hours evaluating the position. This tells the interviewer you are serious about the job. It also is a great opportunity to really see if it is what you want to do.

Answer 3

You didn't say if you are the interview-er or the interview-ee...?

If you're the one being interviewed, I'm glad you realize you need to ask questions, too. Ask what benefits the position/company has (health insurance, vacation days, sick days, etc.). Ask what if anything the company does to keep their workers up to date, like training classes, paying for all or part of college classes, etc. Ask what the bonus structure is, how it's determined, how often it's paid. Ask how employees are evaluated for their performance, how often, and if raises are based on those evaluations. Ask the interviewer if he or she really likes working there, how long they've been there, and if there's anything they don't like about the company or job.
And good luck!
