4 Types of Questions to Ask Your Tech Interviewer ~ FAANG & Startups

Got a tech interview coming up? Girl, I gotchu~ I'm at my 4th company now (2 startups, 2 FAANG), and picked up a few things that helped me prepare for my interviews. Here's my process for asking my interviewer questions to learn more about the company. I'm not a software engineer, but I worked in product management, business development, partnerships, operations, and analytics.

Watching this channel just makes me realize how WRONG I've been going about job interviews, and not even tech-related job interviews. This is information that EVERYBODY should know. Chloe, this is such a resource I'm so glad you lay these techniques out so thoroughly and in a way that's easy to digest.

As a new PM, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your videos. One challenge I have that I hope you can make a video one day to share your experience is what questions to ask in your 1-on-1s with every one in different departments when you’re new to the company. In my other roles, I never had a 1-on-1 with executives so I feel stumped and worried I may ask the wrong thing.

Hi Chloe! I just want to say thank you so much for creating this video (and all your other videos hehe)! I used these questions during my interview (although it was for a program coordinator role in tech) and it really helped me gain confidence and got me thinking of hard hitting questions of my own. The hiring manager really liked my questions and that's thanks to you!! Although I didn't reach the offer stage at that company I'm thankful I got to gain some wisdom and confidence with interviewing through you. Definitely going to share this with friends who are job hunting as I feel these questions can be applicable anywhere!

I was furiously scribbling down almost every word you said because it's all gold. At the end of the video I realised that you'd already done all the hard work and wrote it up on Medium 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank you for the great questions!

[yeeminty]

I am going through interviews right now and found questions to ask on the web.. but I think I like how you word it better so making tweaks now. I didn't even read the info box and was taking notes on my own.. realized you wrote it all out for us. Haha. :P

As an aspiring PM, I LOVE YOU! This video is so positive and helpful, I'm looking forward to asking some of these Q's during my interview next week :)

[vanessasheena]

These are really great questions, Chloe! I'm just finished 4 interviews with the team. I'm interviewing with the Manager today so perfect timing that I saw this video :)
