I mean I dislike bullshit rankings and metrics as much as the next guy - but if someone asked me these questions I would just pass on the candidate - a person covering his ass about being a bottom performer, from the interview, is not really someone I would be thrilled hiring.
At least OP phrased it as career progression question.
- rockostrich 4y agoI don't know. I think they're useful questions for a top tier performer to ask to make sure they're not joining a shitshow where they have to clean up after people who have been underperforming for a year and haven't been given any feedback.
- paulcole 4y agoYeah, I'm not a top performer but I use those types of questions for a similar reason. Also any interviewer who's put off by those questions signals to me a company culture that I'm not particularly interested in. Additionally, I really enjoy flipping the script and interviewing the interviewer whenever possible. Of course, if I was desperate for any job, I'd do what it took to get hired, not to satisfy my curiosity and find the right job.

- paulcole 4y agoIf you think these are questions a low performer would ask to see what they can get away with, just ask them if that's the case.
- bradlys 4y agoYou can be a top performer and still be fired for various reasons. The cultural questions and things related to firings are very important. I’ve seen quite a few eng fired for non-performance reasons and entirely due to culture. Firings for performance are something I’ve rarely seen.
