Why do job interviews have to be so one-sided? It is totally understandable that if you are the person applying for the job, you are naturally in a position to prove yourself. But that does not necessarily mean you can't feel out a potential employer on your end. Why not use the job interview as an opportunity to figure out whether or not you really want the position? It's kind of like a date. You can't let that dude from Tinder have all the power - there's a huge chance he's a man-child or a f*ck boy. In a Twitter thread prompted by @hodayum people discuss the sort of questions they ask during a job interview, such as, 'why is this position open?' and 'what's the culture like at this company?' Answers to these sorts of questions could potentially reveal a lot about the employer. We've collected some insightful highlights from the thread that really changed our perspective on job interviews.
