The interviewer wants to ensure that all your questions about the company and the job position are answered during the interview. It is best to ask one or two questions to show you are eager to learn all you can. Examples of good questions to ask include when they are looking to fill the position, how you performed in the interview, or what the interviewer likes most about working for the company. Don't ask questions that cannot be answered when reviewing the job announcement or by reading the company website.

Focus on one or two questions, as you do not want to bombard the interviewer with too many questions. After your questions have been answered at the end of the interview, thank each interviewer for their time while shaking their hand.

Avoid asking questions about money or benefits. The salary and benefits package should have been noted in the job announcement or will be answered by Human Resources if you are offered the job. If the interviewer thinks you are only interested in the monetary aspect of the job, they might think you are in this industry for the wrong reasons.
