I don't know it was pretty off-putting read. The only question which made sense was "How do you plan to deal with...?"—this I can see being asked. As for others—they sound like asked by someone who cannot wait to "fit in" and become a mindless drone who only cares about the organisation.<p><pre><code> &#62; "What are the common attributes of your top performers?" </code></pre> Really? How about "what your organisation is going to do so that I can perform to the best of my abilities"?<p>The questions you ask should not be about how to sell your soul with the maximum benefit to the employer. Don't ask how to maim yourself to be a better fit, just ask to see if the organisation fits you.
