Ask what you most want to know about. Work on THAT in advance. (I’m assuming job interview here)

Questions from others with limited personal context won’t come across well.

As a long-time final round interviewer, your questions, even thoughtful ones, have waaay less impact on your evaluation than going deeper into interesting stories of YOURS. Really that’s the main thing to work on before.

Seriously, when I have interviewed with a partner, I have asked questions like
1) Tell me how I can help you/org achieve some key items on this years roadmap
2) How do you see me contributing to your success?

Things like that...

I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?
