Every job has a follow-up question that can leave a good impression on the interviewer's mind. As a general question, you can ask about opportunities for growth, the expected workload, and what people didn't like about the role in the past.

My go-to is “what does success look like in your eyes as a manager and to the organization as a whole?”. Lets them know that you want to succeed in that role, but that you also want to be clear on what their expectations are so that you can do so. Have always had a positive reaction to this question. Another one I ask if the vibes are good is “how do you respond to roadblocks or challenges along your team?” or “how do you respond to someone on your team making a mistake”. Whether unspoken or explicitly said, you can get a read on how the interviewer might be as a manager with this one.

Respond with questions

Ask at least one. I always ask where the manager sees the company or division going in the future/growth (unless of course they have already covered this.)
Ask what role you might play in the future.
Ask when they feel they will make the decision to fill the position?

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!

Working at a boutique transactiona firm. First year did not receive much guidance and made a few errors, one of which could have been a deal but ended up being fine but overall I worked hard, billed hours above target and showed a willingness to learn. Three main partners in the group. I feel like I may have been written off by the one partner, still get a fair amount of work from another and the third has never really given work but has a rep for doing things alone or using seniors.

My old employer asked me if I wanted to come back to the company as a manager. The pay will likely be much better and the position holds more responsibility than I’ve had before, so overall it would be a step up. The issue is I left the company because of an abusive manager who constantly put me down and made me feel like I wasn’t doing anything right. If I come back I’d be working under her again. I’m torn because the opportunity is great but the stress was awful. Continued in comments…
