The questions I ask are designed to help me learn about the actual environment I'd potentially be walking in to. Understanding the technical parts are easy, grok'ing the environment is a bit tougher. You're making a decision for potentially years after only a few hours of input. 1. If there is one thing you could get the company to stop doing today, what is it? 2. On that note you're in tech, there are numerous opportunities everywhere, what are the top three things that keep you here? 3. What's the job you want after this one? Why? How is the company helping you get there? 4. What do you and your manager discuss in your 1:1s? What do you and your reports discuss in your 1:1s? 5. Name a mistake you made in the past year. What did you learn from it? How did your team and/or manager respond? 6. Same question as above but name a success.
