This will pretty much be the last interview if I want it to be. They have essentially told me it's mine. So I want all the details I can get.

and remember they are giving you politicized answers. add 10% to estimates of hours, utilization, etc. I also agree with CR though, a lot of recent turnover might not be a good sign. maybe ask why your position is open

"What advise would you give to a senior who wishes to be in your position one day?"

I like asking something weird like what's the best spot for lunch near the office. Then you can invite your interviewer to lunch after the fact like a week or so after your interview.

I'd ask what they are looking for in a senior, what industry needs they expect you to fill, and how big the teams are for your LoS in the office.
