3 Questions For The End Of Interviews

When the interviewer asked if you have any questions at the end of the interview, never say no. This is your chance to stand out, but also gauge company culture to see if you even want to work there. So here are three questions that I ask at the end of every interview. The first question I always ask is, how do you measure success for the role and how will I be judged in my performance over six, nine and 12 months? This is like LoKi a little dirty psychological trick as it forces the interviewer to already think of you as having that role and what it would take to be successful if you did have that role. They answer to the second part of the question about six, nine and 12 month success. Also reveals to you how the company feels about mentorship, the team culture about growth, etc. The second question I ask is, did you start at a lower role at this company and if so, what does growth look like overall? Now, this is more of a question for you. You're trying to see like, is there room to grow or am I just going to get stuck at this job? And number three, this is mainly a question like if you're in office, but I'm sure you could frame it for remote work. What is the lunch time culture like? Now, this is a little sneaky question that no one is going to expect so they're going to probably answer truthfully because they won't have a prepared answer. I think asking this simple question kind of reveals to you the team culture if not even the whole company culture. You get an insight into work life balance especially if they enjoy like long lunches and chatting with each other. And you also see if like you can connect with your co-workers beyond hey we're here to get a job done type of mentality. Just remember that as much as a company is interviewing you you also need to see if it's a fit for yourself. So asking questions is a good way to establish that. But good luck with your interviews keep coding.
