This article will help you out with some unique questions to ask at the end of the interview. Begin with these and add others that are essential to you as you prepare for your interview.
1. Have you introduced this program for the first time?
This question might provide you with a lot of insight into the team that you join. The firm might expand if this is their first internship program. If you are replacing an intern, this might indicate high turnover.
2. What are the qualities you look for in an Intern?
Use this to find out what your company expects from its interns to succeed. Is the top talent the last person to leave or do they work unaided to execute tasks? You would like to succeed, therefore make sure your values match the expectations of the new team. Consider not only your prospective boss but your co-workers while asking this question.
3. Anything that worries you about my selection?
It may be quite frightening to face up the doubts of the interviewers openly, but it offers the chance to discuss your worries directly and to advocate your candidacy. Talk about your strengths and help them stay assured about your dedication towards this internship.
4. How challenging is this Internship?
Bring this up so that you may understand clearly what difficulties you may experience in your new workplace. With a new internship, comes its problems. During the interview process it is preferable to know about them, so you can determine how to address them.
5. How would you define the team dynamics?
This is another wonderful question that will make you stand out from other candidates. You will not only learn more about the internship program, but also the organisation and the work culture. If you are fortunate enough to talk to someone other than the interns, that will help you understand the reputation of the business.
6. Can you tell me more about the Internship program?
This makes you look interested and curious. Most times, the interviewers are happy to share the specifics of their internship programs to help good candidates in selecting their company. Asking this also helps you firm your place for getting selected in final rounds.
7. How long is the interview process, and what are the subsequent steps?
Ask this question so you may prepare for the next parts of the interview process. You can also use this time to let them know about any time-sensitive details, such as whether or not you're considering other offers or if you need time to plan for things like transportation, housing, or a timetable change.
A couple additional pointers for your interview:
Keep inquiries open-ended. Even if the first time interviews feel like cross questioning them, the interviewer should speak openly to you. Avoid inquiries, which may be responded with a basic "yes" or "no," to keep the conversation going.
Avoid asking obvious questions. You must not question them just for the sake of asking; interviewers may deem you as an over smart person. Do your homework well. Avoid asking for irrelevant or mindless information that can be readily available on the official site of the firm.
Avoid asking a lot of Questions. The interviewer will probably conduct several more job interviews in addition to meetings and routine tasks. Choose a few key questions instead of asking too many. Instead, rather than waiting to conclude the conversation, attempt to ask your queries during the interview.
This is a great chance for people looking for work to learn more about potential employers and jobs. Interviews serve two purposes:
- they tell the person interviewing you about your skills and experience, and
- they let you figure out if the job is a good fit for you.
