But then, of course, some of the most important would be, what's your top criteria. It could be the work environment. It could be the type of culture, the team, the career growth. In a follow up interview with maybe a panel of developers if it's a more technical role to deliver on technical questions, it would be advantageous if you would ask questions yourself that are important around the particular technologies or how you approach a particular strategy or deliver. Finally on the interview piece, there might be a final interview that would be with the leader or the product owners and cross-functional teams. So you have a chance to identify with the folks of whom you'd be working. And then, of course, they would as well. 📼 Besides being ready to answer where do you see yourself in the next 5 years, prepare yourself to share your story.
