Is it okay to bring a list of questions to an interview? I have a lot to ask and it’s hard to remember them all.

Personally, I like it when a candidate brings questions to an interview. However, I would limit them to 3-4. You don’t want to go through a whole list and take a lot of time. Plus the interview itself will probably answer some of your questions.

Agreed. Come prepared, show you’re interested by engaging the interviewer with questions...but don’t over do it. 3-4 is a good number

You might show up and have multiple interviews. Separate your questions by interviewer. Remember your behavior in the waiting room. People are always watching.

Prioritize your questions so that the most important ones get answered.

3. I will be getting offer soon from one of the MNC, In that case what should I do?? Should I resign or go ahead with 2 client's project in my organization??

I was given offer by Mastercard in month of Dec The hike was less but looking at brand & other perks I accepted the offer & was looking forward to joining them.I got few offers & I went back to them for sole purpose of renegotiating CTC, to have a industry standard hike. They didn't reverted back for 2-3 days & just dropped a mail that they are revoking initial offer as well on grounds that they didn't like i gave other interview

The role still shows as “Interviews in Process.” We did discuss potential start dates, but no salary. Any experience with receiving offers for an internal services role? Is this common?
