Know your interviewer
During an interview, you’ll have lots of questions about your specific role, the company, policies and a variety of other topics. Make sure you’re asking the right questions to the person you’re meeting with. If you’re talking to HR, that’s the time to bring up policy questions, company-specific inquiries and highlight your longevity and experience in past roles. When you’re talking to a would-be supervisor or colleague, bring up industry-specific topics and dig down into your specialized skills. That’s also the right time to ask about department workflow and where you fit in with the current team. By asking the right questions to the right people, you’ll not only get better answers, but will come across as better prepared and thoughtful during the interview.
