in every interview there is a time for questions
questions which you should definitely use
use to impress the interviewer i did a video
video where i shared top questions you should
should ask a recruiter at the end of an interview
interview but if in doubt here are the five
five top things and questions you should avoid
avoid asking or mentioning to the recruiter
recruiter during your interview so number
number one is what is the salary for this
this role according to the job description
description library 91 of
of employers expect the interviewee to know
know the salary before the interview if there
there are no salary mentions on the job description
description this means that they expect you
you to do your research ahead of the interview
interview they'll often ask what are your
your salary expectations and you should always
always prepare the answer to this question
question ahead of your interview check out
out glassdoor salary.com linkedin and so many
many others so that you see what is the right
right salary for this position and what should
should you ask based on your experience however
however if during the interview they didn't
didn't ask you what are your salary expectations
expectations this shouldn't be the first question
question out of your mouth when the time for
for questions come and this is because you
you don't want to give them the impression
impression that you're only in for the money
money talking about compensation is absolutely
absolutely fair question to ask and how early
early you can ask it it will depend on the
the industry and the culture you're applying
applying to but general rule of thumb is it
it is actually better to ask companies regarding
regarding salary later on in the recruitment
recruitment process and this will actually
actually give you more negotiation power number
number two do not blame it on your nerves
nerves interview statistics reveal that employers
employers are looking for confident candidates
candidates however being nervous is absolutely
absolutely normal being nervous can actually
actually be a good thing it means that you're
you're excited and going to that interview
interview means a great deal to you but keep
keep this in mind 40 of
of recruiters indicate that candidates voice
voice quality and lack of smile might be reasons
reasons for rejection additionally 65 of
of interviewers reject candidates who don't
don't make eye contact and 20 of
of interviewers don't take into consideration
consideration candidates who sit with her
her arms crossed so before you go into that
that interview focus on relaxing and calming

remember if you're nervous during your interview
interview there is a reason why you're here
here the recruiter believes in you so now
now it's the time for you to believe in you
you number three badmouthing your previous
previous employer or working experience you're
you're not alone if you had previous working
working experiences that were negative or
or toxic or even if you have bosses or ex-colleagues
ex-colleagues that you never wish to work
work with again however talking poorly about
about your previous negative experience will
will not put you at advantage quite the opposite
opposite by badmouthing your previous employer
employer in front of your new potential employer
employer i actually lead them to think if
if you badmouth them as well if
if they ask you why do you want to leave your
your current job or why did you leave your
your previous working experience say something
something like this instead i saw this amazing
amazing opportunity at revlon and i'm ready
ready for a fresh new challenge at an exciting
exciting organization such as yours and give
give them reasons why do you want this job
job why do you want to work at a company and
and why would you be such a great addition
addition to their team so before you go on

you'll be giving them a winning answer while
while remaining professional then number four
four not knowing what are the company's products
products or services did you know that 47
47
47 of
of interviewers wouldn't choose a candidate
candidate that has little knowledge about
about the company if you have an interview
interview at microsoft you better know what
what microsoft office is don't tell them that
that you only use pages by apple if you don't
don't know what a company does or even if
if you're not a fan of what their products
products are why do you want to work for this
this company so before you walk into that
that interview make sure you have things to
to say about the industry and about what a
a company does do you research before why
why not checking out the company's website
website check out our mission the values their
their goals check their social media and even
even why not reading some news articles about
about them number five what will i do in this
this role so you just spent a whole interview
interview convincing the recruiter that you're
you're such a great fit for this role but
but had the end you ask what exactly am i
i going to be doing in this role to be fair
fair job descriptions often aren't 100 clear
clear and the reality of the job can be absolutely
absolutely different to what is on paper but
but asking the recruiter at the end of your
your interview what am i going to be doing
doing in this role doesn't leave exactly a
a good impression then i actually lead the
the recruiter wondering did you do your research
research before you came to the interview
interview are you applying to other several
several jobs and you don't know which interview
interview you're in for did you read the job
job description ask them instead what are
are the five top things the person in this
this role is expected to accomplish in the
the first 30 60 and 90 days or even what is
is a typical week in this role like and doing

the interview can be things like checking
checking the company's website checking online
online for similar role descriptions or like
