This will help them not only assess your genuine active interest in working for them but will also clue them into whether or not you are the type of person to ask questions when training for a new job. The more questions you ask, the more enhanced your communications skills will seem, and the more likely you are to be self-guided and successful at your job.

You are interviewing them as much as they are interviewing you. So have questions prepared to ask them. They have given you plenty of opportunities to share your accomplishments and toot your own horn. This is your opportunity to do the same for them. You want to hear their pitch, so give them the opportunity to convince you that this may be the job for you.

Don't ask about pay, incentives, benefits, or anything that serves you. You haven't sealed the deal, so don't blow it by effectively asking them what they can give you.
