Director Of Talent Question:
Tell me what do you wish interviewees asked you?
Answer:
I wish they asked me what my leadership style is like and what I expect. They are interviewing us as much as we’re interviewing them. So they can confirm that this feels like the right match for them.
I also wished they asked, “How will I know I’m successful in this job in a year?” Use the interview to establish expectations.
Finally, I have candidates meet the team without me in the room. I wish people would talk about teams and get to know players on the team. Talk about where their strengths could help the team do better things. What kind of team they are going to be joining? What could they add to our team and what could that team add to them?
