I agree with all of this except: > This is also why to me it is kinda a red flag if a candidate has no questions, because usually they should have if they wonder if they are the right person for the job and if the job is the right one for them. Especially since that is an interview-cliché already. …which seems like a non sequitur to me. I only apply if I think I'm capable of the role. If research ahead of the interview is positive, and how the interview process is handled seems good, I may not have any questions. Although, I admit I sometimes thought of some later, which I emailed if important. But possibly where I interview worst is in refusing to exaggerating or puff myself up. I've come to wonder if some of the roles I didn't get were because there weren't any lies (such as "extreme self confidence") for them reduce to a guesstimate of reality.
