INTERVIEW THE INTERVIEWER
token, recruiters probably don’t know intimate details about the
specific tools or programs you will use in your job. So don’t waste
precious time on questions they can’t answer. In the next three
chapters you will find the best questions appropriate to each cat-
egory of interviewers. These are the questions that will promote
your application and maximize the opportunity for you to advance
to the next level.
Because your interview with the hiring manager, the only per-
son with the authority to give you a job, is the most important,
most of the best questions are concentrated in Chapter 8.
Note: Because every interview situation is different, it is critical
that you personalize each question to the requirements of the par-
ticular interview. Consider the phrasings of the questions in this
book as jumping-off points for you to personalize questions for
your job interviews. To reinforce this point, the book offers varia-
tions for asking questions in different ways. The more you cus-
tomize your questions for the demands of each interview, the more
authentic you will appear.
