Ask about the company culture and work environment, the team you’ll be working on. Compensation if they haven’t said anything yet. This HR sniff test also serves to check for interest. When I interview, if the person has zero questions for

We sold our 8-year-old startup last year, and boy do a lot of these bullet points ring true. We were very lucky that one of the founders was skilled at the M&A game, or we would have underpriced it dramatically. If you’re thinking about
