Questions to NOT Ask in a Job Interview


Can this job be done from home?
Typically, if the job can be done from home it will be stated in the job description. It is not appropriate to ask this because it can come off like you are asking for special conditions before you even get the job.

How often do you promote your employees?
If you ask this can seem as if you are being too eager or possibly pompous. You don't want to come off like you are expecting a promotion within the first two weeks.

Are you going to monitor my social media platforms?
Asking this can raise suspicion quickly. You can come off like you are trying to hide something. It can be a very common practice for employers to search for you on social media to get an idea of what type of person you are and see if there are any apparent red flags.

Do you drug test?
Don't ever ask about drug testing in an interview. This is probably one of the worst questions you can ask. No matter what reason you have for asking, just don't do it. Asking this can pull you out of the running for the job real quick.




Who is your main competition?
You should already know who this company's competitors are before you go into that interview. Do your research and know what this company is all about and gather as much information as possible.
