Why You Should “Interview the Interviewer”

The interview is predominantly about you—how you meet the job criteria, what experience and qualifications you bring to the role, and why you are the right person for the position. However, it’s also an opportunity for you to “interview the interviewer”:

• Clarify specifics about the role and company culture.
• Demonstrate enthusiasm and ambition.
• End on a shining note by showing your preparedness.

Essential Questions to Ask

When the interviewer asks, “Do you have any questions for us?”, don’t say “no”! Instead, consider asking:

• “What would a typical day look like in this position?”
• “What is the best thing about working at this company?”
• “Would it be possible to see the facilities or meet the team?”
• “If I’m successful, what can I expect in terms of prospects, development, and support?”

It is perfectly acceptable to write down your questions before the interview. This approach shows that you are organised, detail-oriented, and have pre-planned your discussion points.
