We've put together a list of 10 must ask questions for your next hiring interview. Enjoy!

1. Get to know the candidate as a person by discovering their interests.
The candidate’s answer may give you an idea of why they could leave you
a year or three in the future.
What about your previous
job frustrated you? 09
How would you spend your
time if you didn’t have to
work?
10
You get to see what the candidate is passionate about, as few people will
talk about accomplishing something they don’t value.
Wording the question in this particular way challenges them to admit
to a shortcoming or mistake of their own and describe the details of
that circumstance.
What was a situation you
handled poorly in the past,
and how would you handle
it in the future?
07
What is your greatest personal
accomplishment?08
The insights to be gained from this question come in two parts: First, the
role (e.g. a co-worker, boss, mentor or other) of the person they consider
“the best.” Next, the qualities they value in that person.
This question offers the candidate a chance to correct any omissions and
take one last shot at showing off their best stuff.
What didn’t you get a
chance to include on your
resume?
05
Tell me about the best
person you ever worked with.
What made them so great?
06
Job skills aren’t the only thing that makes a good employee. You also have
to figure out if they’re a good fit for your company culture.
This question isn’t just to see if they can come up with the right answer,
but also to see what their process is for solving problems (or if they have
one at all).
How would you solve X
problem? 03
Describe your ideal work
environment.04
This is an opportunity for a candidate to demonstrate their lateral thinking
and problem-solving abilities, and also an opportunity for you to see how
truthful a candidate is.
