Hi all,

Desperate to leave a pretty bad toxic work environment and have a final interview with the VPCDO tomorrow of a mid-size non-profit. I’m anxious about it and really the sheer necessity of needing this job. Anyone have some good questions I can ask at that level to shine? Thank you in advance!!!!

What is the goal your team delivered on in 2023 that you're most proud of? What is your 2024 goal that's keeping you up at night?

For tenured interviewers ask - what keeps you engaged after all these years?

For less tenured inviewers ask- knowing what you know now, what would you have done differently in the first 6 months on this team?

What does career progression look like for this role?

Good luck! ❤️

Some basic interview follow-up questions are always good. What are they looking for in a candidate, what is a typical day on the job like, when can you expect an answer, where is the company headed, culture of the company, etc.

I always ask them what kind of employee they are looking for. What qualities they'd like to see in a future employee. This question always goes over well.

How to attract volunteers to the committee? I want to make sure I get the right people involved in this, to push for changes.

I'm in desperate need of tips to get genuine buy in from our predominantly white, male senior leadership to create a more inclusive environment.

Hi all,

My boss makes jokes about me being from a different country whenever there is a work meeting or a gathering with coworkers, even though he knows where I am from. This usually occurs when I meet new work-related people or for example if I am in a situation that involves ethnic related subjects.

What is this? This is normal?
