Interview Tip of the Month: Questions to Ask (and Avoid) in the Interview

Hiring managers want you to ask good questions. The questions you pose offer insights about your personality, intelligence and desire for the position. In a first-round interview, here are three questions you should ask:

  1. What will be expected of me during the first 90 days?
  2. What are the soft skills required for success in this position?
  3. What do your company's top performers have in common?
  4. ...and one you shouldn't:
  5. How much vacation will I get? (Ask work-life balance questions after you've received an offer!)
