Tips & Suggestions • http://www.boreme.com/posting.php?id=1585

• Always prepare questions to ask to interviewer(s).
• Do your homework.• Good questions are open-ended, and thus
cannot be answered with a "yes" or "no."• Better questions are behavioral: they ask how
things are done or have happened in the past, because current and past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior.
• An interview is a two-way street.
