What This Video Is About
The video discusses the importance of asking questions in an interview, specifically when the interviewer asks if you have any questions for them. It highlights common mistakes candidates make, such as asking unnecessary questions or not asking any at all.
Major Ideas Discussed
- Candidates often miss the opportunity to ask valuable questions in an interview, which can provide insights into the role and show interest.
- A recommended approach is to ask: "Let's say this interview went really well and a year from now I got the job. Looking back, what would I have had to have done in order for you to feel like it was a good decision? What things will I have had to have done in that role?"
- This approach gets the interviewer to imagine the interview going well and hiring you, prompts them to lay out expectations for success, and shows interest in doing a good job.
What to Watch Next
Candidates should focus on preparing thoughtful questions to ask in interviews, and pay attention to the interviewer's response to gain valuable insights into the role and expectations for success.
