Best Questions
to Ask at the End of an Interview
Career Design
Where Practicality and Possibility Converge
By Maggie Graham, NCC, CPCC
Career Coach
http://maggie-graham.com/
Finally! It’s your turn
to ask questions.
Have more questions prepared
than you think you need.
If you answer “Not really,” at the end of an interview when you’re asked, “Do you have any questions
for us?” it’s a lost opportunity for further engagement and connection.
Useful Categories
 Company culture
 About the position you’re applying to fill
 Performance evaluation
 Getting to know the interviewer
(helpful for customizing thank you notes)
 Lead-in for your summary statement
about why you’re best for this job
Questions about Company Culture
I read in your mission statement that you
value A, B, C. How are these values
reflected in the day-to-day company
operations?
What are some specific examples of the
best and worst expressions of the
company’s culture?
Would you give examples of when you have
been encouraged to spend time on
training and education outside of the office?
What are three words that the people who
are important in your life, outside of work,
use to describe your workplace?
Would you give me an example of how
decisions are made and then
communicated here?
What’s one key element of this company’s
success that someone from the outside
wouldn’t know?
Who are the heroes and heroines here?
What characteristics do the people who are
celebrated have in common?
Or
What are the characteristics common to the
promising people you hired who then
failed?
Position Questions
What tends to be the typical career path
for someone entering this role?
Why is this position vacant?
Is it a new position?
Given that resources are stretched across
everyone’s budget in these economic times,
why did you decide to hire for this
position instead of the many other
positions you may have considered? What
about this position made you prioritize it
over others?
Performance Evaluation Questions
How will you evaluate my success in this
position? What will have happened three or
six months from now that will prove that I
have met your expectations?
What is your 30-day onboarding plan for
this position?
If as a company, we are very successful in
the coming year, what indicators will show
that success? How will the person in this
position contribute to that success?
Questions to Get to Know the
Interviewer
What do you wish you’d known when you
were in my shoes?
What made you make the decision to work
for this company?
What is your favorite day of the work
week? Why?
What professional worries keep you up
at night?
Do you feel valued here? What makes you
know that your contributions here matter?
From the research that I have done on
Company X, I understand the appeal of
working here, but what is it that
keeps you here?
Questions that Lead-In to Summary
About your qualifications and how you’re the best fit for this job
Is there anything in my background or in
what we discussed today that would
prevent me from advancing to the
next step in this process?
Are there any additional questions or
further concerns about my skills and
experience needing clarification for this
position?
I hope your interviews go well!
