Did you know the word "interview" is a combination of two words "inter" and "view"? "Inter" means "to put in the earth or bury" and "view" means "to see"! So the word means to actually see what is buried inside our earth! One of the best known ways to move dirt is with a shovel! Questions are the shovel that exposes the kind of character you are engaging with.
Why are you afraid to ask the hard questions? Question like, "Could you tell me about yourself?" or "What is your greatest weakness?" What about this one, "How do you think someone who knows you well would describe you?"
When you applied for your last job didn't the company ask you personal questions like these? Were they afraid to ask you those hard question? They didn't even care if the questions made you uncomfortable did they! Why? If they hired you you would not just be filling a job but you would be coming a part of that companies FAMILY! If companies see the importance of interviewing a potential employee why don't we see the importance of interviewing a potential addition to our family?
