Interview Tip #4
“What are the most important things you’d like to see someone accomplish in the first 30, 60, and 90 days on the job?”
During a job interview, hiring managers ask lots of questions to learn about your qualifications for a position and the goals you want to accomplish in a new role. Remember, that it’s up to you to ask questions, too; you’re interviewing them just as much as they are interviewing you!
The first 30, 60 and 90 days of employment represent your first three months of working in a new position.
During this time, new employees learn about their specific job duties, company processes and the culture of the organization. Employers often ask this kind of interview question to gauge how you might transition to a new position.
You should ask this question first to see how well you can adjust to the job and the company. You can also ask this question to determine how well you understand the duties and expectations of the position.
