Your Questions Reveal Your Thinking
Saying "I have no questions" is a missed opportunity to stand out.
What to do
- 1
Always have 2–3 ready. "No questions" reads as no interest.
- 2
Ask about the work. "What does a typical week look like in this role?"
- 3
Ask about growth. "How do people typically grow on this team?"
- 4
Ask about the hard part. "What's the biggest challenge in this role?" shows you want the honest version of the job.
- 5
Don't ask the homepage. If their website answers it, asking it reveals you skipped the research.
- 6
Save salary for later. Comp and vacation questions belong in later rounds.
