[quote=Anonymous]I find in those situations doing research on everyone, their projects, etc, is important. Listening carefully is important (we focus so much on what we are saying that sometimes we fail to hear others); responding to questions with the star method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) which helps you stay focused and concise; having a list of thoughtful questions for the interviews. I would not use those questions to explore hours, schedule, work life balance; start date so much as big picture. finally, try to figure out what you will say if someone asks you if you get the job, what would the first 90 days look like for you? Usually something like listen, observe and learn company culture at first, build relationships; then actively contribute to ongoing projects and begin to formulate templates for change/improvements/new projects, soliciting feedback as you go; then build consensus and strategies for implementation. obviously needs to be tailored to the role and what they are looking for (changemaker? continuity? new, fresh ideas but not radical change, etc)[/quote]
