At the end of the interview, in order to get to know each other, the interviewer will politely ask, “Do you have any questions? Most candidates ask basic information about the company, such as salary or size, and rarely ask technical questions.
Recently, I saw such a post on the workplace forum: the leader interviewed a programmer who resigned from a state-owned enterprise and was asked 15 technical questions. The leader said, “I made a mistake, and the result was confused!” What’s going on here?
The programmer had worked in a state-owned enterprise for 3 years, but his technical ability was very average. Only in the second half of the interview, the programmer actually took out his cell phone and dug up 15 technical questions to ask the interviewer. At that time, the leader was confused, and it was understandable to ask one or two technical questions. What was the meaning of asking so much? This is a mistake!
The programmer also said that he had prepared these technical questions long ago, but he was afraid of forgetting them, so he saved them in his mobile phone in advance. The interviewer answered the technical questions in a friendly way. And the final result is no accident, the state-owned programmer was eliminated, the reason is that the technology is too poor!
I have to say that the programmer was very thoughtful, and he probably did it with a purpose. First, if you pass the interview, you can check whether your leader has a real level and learn more technology in the future. Second, even if the interview failed, at least to help themselves to solve so many problems, but also a lot of harvest. Thirdly, the interview is a mutual inspection, not only the company has requirements for employees, employees can also have requirements for the company.
Of course, it’s also possible that if the interviewer is impatient, they won’t talk to you or answer your questions. More importantly, if the technical questions you ask are too difficult for the boss to answer himself, he may think he has lost face. Maybe you had a chance to get the job, but you were eliminated because you embarrassed the boss.
“This is a good idea,” said some netizens. “If you don’t know what to do in the future, just go out and ask the interviewer.” Others said the programmer was so smart and seemed to love learning that he should be given a chance.
Some netizens said that after learning, I will prepare a special document to list the questions I need to know, which is originally a mutual interview, so as not to waste both parties’ time when they find inappropriate when entering the job.
Do you think this approach will work? Feel free to write in the comments.
