Here are some good ones that I've asked that HR people seem to have liked:
I've read the position description, but I'd love to hear in your words what you're looking for in this role. (They may actually already answer this right in the beginning if they give you a general overview of the position, but if they don't, you can ask them if you can ask them a question before you begin with the phone screening)
Could you tell me a little bit about your experience working at [Company X] and how you got to where you are today?
I would ask at most 2 questions because phone screens are meant to be short and to the point. You don't want to ask a lot of questions and take up HR's time. The most important part are your answers to HR's questions, so work on solidifying those, making sure they are concise and brief, and you'll be good to go.
How is the team structured?
Does the firm prefer to promote juniors internally or hire MBAs/laterally?

I have an interview coming up with HR for a SA S&T role.. What would be some good questions to ask them? I doubt I can ask market/technical questions..
Just ask them about them and the firm... doesn't matter what you ask, they aren't exactly great at screening candidates and that won't be a factor in your interview either way.
What traits have you seen in analysts who have succeeded at your firm over time?
Why did you chose this company?
I focus on macro questions which are total softballs for HR people, makes them feel good. "How many employees across the whole company?", "How many office locations?", etc.
.
Bump. I found this a little bit awkward, and when HR asked (telephone) if I had any questions I just answered ''Nope". Afterwards, I realized that it might have been stupid to not ask anything.
How do you guys approach this? Should you still ask the HR something if you already have all the answers?
What questions to ask HR when they offer to schedule phone call about program? (Originally Posted: 12/12/2012)
I received an email from the head of recruiting for an SA position. I had originally emailed an analyst, and he passed my résumé to the head recruiter. I had originally planned on talking with the analyst, but am now talking with the recruiter, who prob can't speak as well about the life of working at the firm and whatnot.
The recruiter attached the program description in the email, so I don't want to ask anything dumb that is on there of course. What would you ask the recruiter? This is ibd btw.
Sorry for any typos, I'm typing on phone
