Abridged: The News-Press
LOS ANGELES, CA -- In a job interview, sometimes it's not your answers that land you the job - it's your questions. While an interviewer may ask you dozens of questions, what really sets you apart from the other candidates is by making your own queries. In fact, some interviewers automatically toss out the person who doesn't ask anything. It's a quick and easy way to narrow down a list of job candidates.
Interviewers are looking for questions that show some deeper interest in the company and the position. Remember that during this process, the interviewer will be watching to see not only if you're a good listener, but if your interest is genuine. By making the interview more of a conversation between two people, rather than an interrogation, the interviewer will be left with an impression of you as a mature professional who has the ability to relate well with others.
If you think you'll get so nervous that you can't remember even one question to ask, prepare a list before the interview. "You've done a great job reviewing all the information for me, but I just want to go over a couple of things to make sure I've got it all," you can say.
