Questions you may be nervous to ask in an interview

When job seekers apply for a position, they often have to jump through more hoops to prove themselves than in the past. Many companies demand drawn-out and multiple steps in the interview process that seem like a job in itself.

How a company treats you during the interview process is a good indicator of the company culture. Asking yourself some questions can give you valuable insight into the company.

• Does the company value your time? Recruiters may prioritise their own time and have no care for your time.
• Are their expectations reasonable? If the application feels like a second job, the companies' expectations may be over the top.
• What do they do with your ideas? Instead of feeding a company your valuable ideas for free, a better solution may be to solve a previously solved problem or critique an existing solution.
• How clear is their communication?
