If you have been invited to an interview for a job offer then you may have a lot of questions that the ad did not answer. It is a good idea to get these questions down on paper as and when you think of them as your mind may go blank when you are in there and struggle to remember what you needed to ask.
Although an interview is predominantly for the employer to find out about you and your skills / experience etc it is also an opportunity for you to find out about the job role and the company to see if you think it is the right job for you.
It is always a good idea to have a few questions that you want to ask as this will show you’re passionate about getting the job. Often people like to ask a little bit of background about the company if this has not already been covered in the interview.
Always wait until the end of an interview to ask questions as you may find that your question is in fact answered. Often people need to know about salaries but are a little afraid to ask. No one can be expected to take a job role without knowing what the salary is, but be prepared if they ask you what you would be expecting to receive.
