I
would hesitate to ask too many questions, before the end of the
interview, however asking questions really does make you look smarter!
I would suggest asking any questions about the role (if any parts of your day to day responsibilities is unclear).
I would also ask about the company, although you should have had a
browse at the website, but if you get smart questions, it's a good idea.
Don't ask something too in depth like what the stock is at the moment,
that's just too geeky!
Ask about progression opportunities (whilst indicating that you are keen
to stay in this role for a few years - employers get scared that you
will move in in 6 months, so you need to reassure them).
Ask about the team, the size of your immediate team, and the culture (what type of people you will be working closely with).
Before you start asking any questions though, I would ask them what the
priorities are in the right candidate. So if they're ideally looking
for someone mature, because their team is older, and you're 19...the
probably no the right job for you. They may also give you tips, whilst
answering this. Like if they say, we are looking for someone to groom
into the more senior role...then you know to act very motivated to
progress and dedicated.
Finally - one I find very interesting is...ask them why THEY personally
work for the comapny.....sometimes it's clear as water that there's
internal issues and you shouldn't accept the role or that they really
really love their job!!
