Questions for prop firms

Hey everyone,

I will be visiting the NYC area mid-april to check out some small prop shops and interview with some that require it as well. Since I'm native from a small town that has nothing to do with trading I was wonder what some good questions to ask would be? Is there something specific regarding the firms answers that I should be on the lookout for? I want to make sure I get a good education wherever I end up, so picking a firm is very important to me. Thanks

-Will
