Almost candidates including me misunderstood that asking creative and brilliant questions to HR- hiring professionals, is a mistake. But i could understand from Melissa Llarena who is a firsthand career transition expert, that asking questions about company structures,motives, the character and behavior of entrepreneur ,structure of career progress and their vision about the candidate etc could be killer questions that could bring good image to the candidate. http://w.forbes.com/sites/85broads/2013/05/08/dont-know-what-to-ask-human-resources-professionals-5-killer-questions-to-ace-screening-interviews/
No it is not.
I actually learned that many recruiter & HR professionals value such questions, as top nadidacy indicators, since they show that you’re not just a nodding applicant who’s just playing along to land any passing job, but someone with own opinions & questions that need voicing and expectations that need met.
After all, now you are not applying for a job anymore, you are negotiating a job, aren’t you? So, ask and negotiate.
No
i think all things should be clear to them and to you also. so no harm in that...
No, asking questions just shows some interest that you are interested to know more about the company you are applying for...But, be careful because it depends on how you deliver or ask the particular questions maybe it needs some arts to show the HR that you are natural and real in doing so....not just to impress the interviewer.
It depends what kind of question you seeking to be answered. You need to be wise enough to ask a relevant question and not just try make it killer for the job.
Actually speaking, you have the right to know about the company you are attending the interview / would join; however, it may backfire as well (depends on how the HR person takes it) which may result in a negative manner for you. You can know about it with the way an HR responds to your first question.
Every question one ask will have an answer, but sometimes the answer would be a frank "I do not know".
Comme so comme sa
No, absolutely now. Instead it will show your keen interest for the job and make you stand differnt compared to others candidate.
I believe it won't be voicing against them, it is actually clearing our doubts. If an applicant hesitates to do so, then he will repeat the same incase he is entered to this job, defenetly that may bring him some hard moments.
