Interviews can either be an excitingly stressful process, or an awfully stressful one. Whichever way you feel, it’s normally a stressful hour or so of your life that you need to prepare well for. So stressful in fact that when some people are in interviews, they get so nervous that they forget to ask questions, which are very important. The questions you ask help you evaluate each employer and determine which ones a good match for you. In any case, it’s important to prepare questions prior to an interview so that you can demonstrate your impressive knowledge of the company and the job you’re seeking.
