Good questions to ask interviewer in lateral IB interview

Hey everyone, what are some questions to ask the interviewer if you are interviewing for an associate role at an investment bank as a lateral move? For context, tier 2 BB analyst 3 interviewing for a tier 1 BB associate 1 role going from a 'basic industries' team to the same team at the target firm (think Industrials / Nat Res)

Thanks!
