		<description><![CDATA[it surely makes you stand out of the crowd if you have done your homework right and have researched the company well, and do not ask questions just for the heck of asking, rather ask questions of some worth like asking to know if how long has the interviewer been with the company and how happy he/she is to work there.

This would give the impression that you are quite interested in working there and would demonstrate you motivation.

Plus, as an add on, within 48 hours of the interview, we recommend that you send a note or an email expressing your appreciation for the interviewer’s time and for the opportunity to meet. Because many candidates, especially at the executive level, do not take the time to do this, it is an opportunity to continue differentiating yourself.

With the collective knowledge shared on this post be all the people here, I think anyone who follows will be surely able to crack the next interview or atleast give the right impression to be considered for the next round.

But in case you feel you need something more, you can check out www.jobinnerview.com and get more help.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That, looking on this site, Facebook/Twitter and Googling the person are what I had in mind, but I thought there might be a specific recommended strategy to use the info found besides, &quot;Try to suck up and make them like you&quot;. 

I&#039;m thinking there are probably at least a few different scenarios one could follow based on the info found. Then, do we engage the person or not, to what degree, etc. There&#039;s obviously some interpretation of the findings that determines direction from there.

Was mainly just curious to see if there was more from the person making that suggestion or if it was just a passing thought/idea.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[These are really great points for how to wow employers in your interview. Whether your interview is in person or through online video, the way you enter and leave the interview are extremely important. Asking employers at the end of the interview if they have any concerns about you is a great way to address those concerns and make sure you move along to the next step of the process. The beginning and end of your interview will make a lasting impression, so make sure it’s the right impression!]]></description>

Critical thinking about the company and the job are important to strategic preparation for a job interview, especially regarding important questions to ask. It’s true that the inability to ask important questions about the job could ruin your chances of moving along in the hiring process. You’ve made a great point regarding the importance of the candidate asking about potential concerns relating to moving forward in the process.

		<description><![CDATA[Candidates that come prepared with well thought-out, informed questions are impressive. Candidates that ask elementary questions that could be answered with research are not. Be selective with questions and don’t ask them merely to fill the silence. Also ask the hiring manger questions like; how long have you been with the company and what do you like about working here, to help gauge your fit within the culture. 

As you said, Kyle, it’s crucial to close the interview by addressing any concerns or hesitations the hiring manager may have. I’ve found the best candidates utilize this proactive approach: http://pastfive.typepad.com/pastfive/2011/02/make-an-impression-with-one-question-.html.
