Ask the interviewer questions

In this video, we'll take a little time to discuss additional strategies you can use during a job interview.
In past job interviews, your potential employer may have asked: "Do you have any questions for me?" This type of question can be an opportunity for you to show the interviewer that you're prepared and ready to have a meaningful conversation with them.
A big part of interview preparation is researching the company before the interview because it will allow you to ask questions that demonstrate you took the time to learn about the organization and its needs.
These kinds of questions show that you're passionate about your career and that you want to help the company strengthen its security posture.
There are also some general questions you can ask the interviewer to determine if the job and the organization itself are a good match for you.
Here are some examples: "What's the biggest challenge for a new person in this role?" "In what ways can I contribute to the success of the team and the organization?" "What qualities or traits are most important for working well with the team and other stakeholders?" Questions like these can help you develop rapport with the interviewer, and show that you're interested in learning more about the role and the organizational culture.
Interviewing for jobs can be a really exciting process when you're prepared, and asking questions is an essential part of the interview process.
Don't be afraid to ask potential employers tough questions.
This will help them understand you as a thoughtful, curious person who can add value to the team.
