Job Interviews: Prepare Questions In Advance
An interview almost invariably closes with the potential
employer asking if you have any questions. Often an applicant
will ask for clarification on benefits -insurance, vacation
time, etc. While these are obviously important for you to know,
they plant a seed in the interviewer's mind that maybe you are
more interested in what the job can do for you than in how you
can help the employer.
Try to have three or four questions ready to ask that
demonstrate your interest in the company and your desire to be a
problem-solver.
If you have been able to do some research, trot out a question
or two that came to mind. If you have been able to come up with
some ideas that relate to the problem, throw them out to see how
the employer reacts.
If you have been able to identify some trends or problems in the
industry, ask how that is going to affect the company and what
they are doing to deal with it. Show your
concern about industry
developments and what that may bode for the future.
If some current challenges have been brought up earlier in the
interview, ask for clarification and more detail.
The more the interviewer interacts with you as if your concerns
are mutual, and that possible solutions are something you could
consider together, the more you will be seen as a valuable
future member of his team and the more likely you will be asked
to join that team.
