16. Which other companies are you interviewing with?
How to Answer
The interviewer is curious and would like to know if you are visiting any of their close competitors to discuss a driving role. You are never under obligation to disclose who you are interviewing with, and you are usually best not to name any names. Be direct without giving away too much. Let the interviewer know that you are active in your search but are being very discerning regarding your applications, and final decision. You also do not want it to appear that you are putting all of your eggs into this one basket. Think of this as a first date question - you want to show your interest, but also keep some mystery!
