Questions centered around a business perspective are refreshing.

Showing you care about more than the creative work, even if it's pretty shallow.

Probes around the client relationship show you are solutions orientated and understand the selling aspect of what we do.

Infrastructure questions, team set up, projects per year, platforms.

Asking about the agency process, is good for you understand the way they work (more helpful for you than them)

What work are they jealous of in their agency, also helps you understand their bar/standard.
