Do some research on the company and the industry before the interview. It will give you a better understanding of the company’s mission, values, and goals. During the interview, ask questions that show you’ve done your homework and are genuinely interested in the company and the position. 

You might want to ask about the company’s plans for growth and expansion or what qualities they are looking for in a successful candidate. You could also ask about the day-to-day responsibilities of the job or what opportunities there are for professional development. 

The interview should be a two-way conversation. Asking thoughtful questions will show your interest and engagement and help determine if the company and the position fit you.
