Interview Questions to Ask in an Interview

Interview Questions to Ask in an Interview

When a candidate is granted an interview it is a huge step forward in the process. Typically, candidates will take the opportunity to research the employer, see who they are and really try their best to impress them. However, as candidates you should also take the time to prepare interview questions to ask in an interview. Here is a start to your preparation with three main questions everyone should ask in their interview.

Could you describe a typical day for this role?

Job descriptions say a lot about what the role requires and what skills you need. But it does not tell you how a typical day can look like. Descriptions do not tell you the volume of calls you may receive, or the amount of work there is. Asking this question will clarify what your day may look like, and will offer you more clarity in potentially accepting the role.

What are the growth opportunities for a person in this position?

This question will allow you to see where the position you are interviewing for can potentially take you. It also puts the employer in a position to talk further about the growth opportunities. Whether, they fund an education program, or they promote within their company. This question will really allow you to see your growth potential in the organization.

Could you describe the company culture?

Company culture is an interesting question because this where you can see if you will fit in overall. However, answers for this questions can be vague and it is okay to probe. If an employer answers with fun and dynamic, you can probe and ask what they mean by that. Does it mean the team goes out and participates in outside activities? Is the team a part of sports team? There are many questions that can help in finding out what the company culture is like. Be meticulous and ask the right questions, the interview does not need to be skewed in a different direction. Find out what the culture is like and if it fits within your values it will make the decision of accepting all the easier.

Finding that right opportunity involves many steps, and one of them is interviewing your potential employers. You should be just as impressed with the employer as they should be impressed with you. The questions listed above are guidelines to further questions that can be asked.

How to create the perfect Job Wish List!

How to create the perfect Job Wish List!

The end of the year is a great time to think about moving on to new opportunities. Typically we reflect on our current jobs to find out whether or not we should move on. Many of us may decide we do want to move on, but don’t really know what we want. It’s great to create a list, it helps organize our thoughts and narrow down what we want. Here are some tips on creating the perfect job wish list!

  • Your Goals: Ask yourself what your short-term and long-term goals are. Where do you see yourself starting at a job? Where would you like it to be in five years? This way you can really channel what sort of job you would like to be in.
  • What do/don’t you want in a job: Take a moment to think about what you want in a job. What responsibilities do you want your next job to have? Do you want flex time?  How far are you willing to commute? Ask yourself the really tough questions to narrow down what you want. You may be currently working, and you have been there long enough to know what you don’t like. Ask yourself what a deal breaker is in your next job. Get everything out on the table that you don’t see yourself doing in the future.
  • Salary Expectations: Lay out all the cards here. What are you currently making? What would you like to make? How flexible are you in salary for the right job. Salary is one of the most important factors of looking for a new job. Be honest with yourself and find out what is acceptable for you.
  • What companies do you want to work for: Visualize yourself at a new organization. Which company is it? List your top five companies that you would like to work for. This way you have a better idea of where you see yourself.

Creating a Job Wish List will help you figure out what you want in a job. You can list everything out and truly visualize yourself in a new opportunity.
