Keep in mind that you’re also interviewing the company to see if it’s the right fit for you.

What expectations do they have for this role? What is the work life balance? Company culture?

I’d go along the lines of that

"when do I start?"

I’m sure that “works at Freelance 1” is joking when he suggested “When do I start?”, but whatever you ask, don’t ask that!

Art Director 1 has good suggestions. Another question you might want to ask is … Are there opportunities for professional development? Two good questions to end with … Do you have any concerns about my ability to fulfill the responsibilities related to this role? What are the next steps?

Definitely, definitely ask about next steps at the end, and try to get concrete answers on timing.

Even if it’s somewhat of an estimation, the worst thing is when you forget to ask and then wait for weeks on edge.

Ask if you can talk with other people who work there. The interviewer is the real estate agent. The other people are the house you’ll live in.
