Coming on too strong in an interview (experienced hire, senior associate)
Wondering if you guys suggest saving the hard hitting questions for after securing the offer:
- What is your work life balance like
- Is this a career track opportunity (please cite examples)
- Do your juniors actually source investments or do you just say that so you can produce IC for partners and then get your deals from bankers anyway (e.g., % of deals banked)
- Are your non-MD staff valuable / independent or do you serve at the leisure of MDs
- Are you expected to be "on call" even off deals (e.g., respond in 10 minutes, be available to work at the drop of a hat (e.g., no going to things like basketball games where you couldn't bring a laptop and be ready to work)
- How many days do you take off
I've been asking these during interviews and wonder if they make me a red flag. I think they do even though they are all legitimate questions. Curious to get other thoughts.
