At the end of the interview it is usual for the interviewer to ask you if you have any questions. It is important to have some questions to ask to show you are keen about the job.

  • If your questions have already been covered during the interview tell them that.
  • Don't ask too many questions as their time is precious.
  • You should be expected to know a reasonable amount of information about the position before the interview, you can always ask more at the time of the offer.
  • Questions should reflect your interest rather than ones that could be answered easily through research.
