Questions for Interviewer - How to answer well?!

ib interviews are usually concluded with this statement:

"Do you have any questions for me? About IB, about our firm, about the process?"

I think a no doesn't work as good reply. Your thought? Tips or advice? Past experience to share?

Ty monkeys!

Generically, you can ask about culture or their work or how this role will interact with others or will entail. If you want to get creative, you can ask follow up questions to the ones that they asked to you regarding your resume or experiences or ask questions pertaining to information that they revealed during the interview. You can ask about something relevant to their industry that is going on recently. Finally, you could try to piss them off by asking how long you have to stay with them before you can jump ship to a more prestigious firm. Personally, I prefer this one, but haven't tried it out yet. Let me know your findings.

 

How much do you make? How long before I get your job? Will I be receiving my offer today or tomorrow?
