3 Good

Questions to
Ask Recruiters
Ace your Next Interview

#1
How long has the
position been open?

If a position has been open for a year, it’s


tipping you off to the fact that the hiring
manager is either extremely picky, or nobody
wants the job.

#2
What can you tell me
about the hiring manager?

It’s helpful to know what type of technical


background the hiring manager has, as well
as information about his/her history within
the company. This information will be
helpful when speaking with the hiring
manager later in the interview process.

#3
What are some reasons
that other candidates
haven’t been selected?

This can help identify some potential


mistakes that candidates have exhibited,
whether it’s on a resume or during an
interview.

Bonus Tip:
How to Ask a Recruiter
about Salary

I’d recommend asking, “in terms of salary,


do you have a general range in mind for the
position?”

This is a very casual, non-threatening way to


ask. It sounds better than saying, “What
does the position pay?”

I’d never recommend asking that in a first


conversation.
