What does your company do?
Questions like this will make you look unprepared. To avoid that, never ask anything that can easily be answered with a 谷歌 search.
What will my salary be?
Hold off on the money talk.
Will I have to work long hours?
This says, I'm lazy.
How soon can I take a vacation?
Wait until you're offered the job before you start asking these types of questions.
How quickly could I be considered for a promotion1?
Focus on the job at hand.
When will I be eligible2 for a raise?
This may tell the interviewer that money is the only thing you care about.
Will I have my own office?
Does it really matter?
What happens if I don't get along with my boss or coworkers?
The interviewer may wonder if you've had problems with colleagues in the past || and they may even assume you're difficult to work with.
Will I have an expense account?
There's really no reason to ask this in the interview. Plus, it sends the wrong message.
Are you married?/Do you have kids?/etc.
Never, ever ask the interviewer any personal questions.
Can I make personal calls during the day?
This one says you're not 100% focused on your work.
I heard this rumor3 about the CEO. Is it true?
You should never bring gossip into a job interview. It's highly unprofessional.
Do you monitor emails or internet usage?
This question will raise red flags || something you definitely don't want to do in the interview.
Do you do background checks?
This one may also make the interviewer suspicious.
Can I arrive early or leave late, as long as I get my work done?
Don't try to make adjustments to the schedule before you've even been offered the job.
How did I do?
This one puts the interviewer on the spot. If you really want feedback, wait until you get the offer or rejection4, and then ask in an email what you did well, or could have done better.
Did I get the job?
You don't want to appear too eager.
Bonus: The worst question of all is the one you never ask.
Not asking questions can be just as bad, or worse, than asking terrible questions, says Deborah Shane, a career author, speaker, and media consultant5. It can reveal a lot about your communication skills, personality, and confidence and it can leave the interviewer with a bad impression of you.
