Woman reveals the one question you should ask in a job interview that leads to an offer every time

A woman has revealed the interview question that has landed her a job every time.

Interview advice seems to be endless, and of course there is nothing better than a good bit of research on the company you’re applying to, and what the job role will entail.

But one woman has suggested that alongside all of this, there’s one question she will ask at the end of an interview, which secures her the role every single time.

Honey, we’re all ears.

Catherine Lockhart from Texas shared to Instagram her top-tip, and people in the comments were divided on her advice.

There comes a point towards the end of the interview, where the person frames the question of whether you have anything you would like to ask.

And this is where the golden advice comes into play.

It’s always good to have a couple of questions lined up to show that you’re actually interested in the role.

But Catherine’s question is always ‘what does excellence look like in this role?’

She said in the clip: “It gives the interviewer an opportunity to explain a little bit more about the day-to-day functions of the role.

“It lets the interviewer know that you're serious about performing and exceeding their expectations.”

Another great question is to ask the panel what they love most about their job and the company, it generates a bit of light-hearted conversation and shows curiosity.

When it comes to what to avoid, Catherine had some more great advice: “Do not mention PTO (paid time off) - do not ask if they have any other benefits.”

It doesn’t really send out a great message to the potential employers.

Whilst it’s still important information, the initial interview is probably not the best time to pose this to them.

One person disagreed with this in the comments, saying: “I am a recruiter and I'd have to disagree that you shouldn't ask about PTO, this is an employee's right to know and part of the compensation package.”

Another user in the comments said: “Another great question to ask at the end is to ask the interviewer 'what gives you the most satisfaction in your role?' (or something like that, they love to talk about themselves!).”

A third said: “I always ask this and what their favourite thing about working there is, there's a big difference in how they answer depending on their job satisfaction.”
