Asking follow-up questions

Asking follow-up questions Ask follow-up questions in the interview to ensure that you are listening to what the interviewer has been saying, and to be actively engaged and involved in the conversation. Interviewers keep note on if the interviewee is really interested in the conversation at hand, and is not just simply throwing a question out there for the sake of it. By asking follow-up questions, you are building that connection with the interviewer, and the interviewer is recruiting not only talent, but also people that fits well into their culture. Be reactionary and be sharp on your feet and listen about the interviewer’s response and ask clarifying questions if necessary. Asking interesting, relevant questions Try to ask questions that are current and something that is not regular. For example, a question that could possibly be asked is asking about the company’s operations during COVID-19 times, and their preparation or response to it. This is an interesting question because 1) it is current to today’s times, but also 2) it is relevant to the company that you are interviewing for, and wanting to know more about how the company has dealt during these times.
