Questions in a job interview

I found some very tricky job interview questions in Jochen Mai‘s blog karrierebibel.de, here are the ones I find most interesting:

• How do you know you did a good job?
• How do you think about being managed?
• When was the last time you broke the rules and why?
• What will your colleagues learn from you?
• If I consult two of your former colleagues – a friend of you and a person who‘s not really a friend of you – what would both of them say about you?
• If we hire you now: what will be your first actions in the next 90 days?
• What do you expect from a company you invest your talent and time in?
• Which of your qualities is the most misunderstood by other people?

Some headscratchers, right? But what would be even more interesting for me are the questions the other team members (same job and subordinates) would like to ask their soon-to-be-colleague…

What would you like to ask?
