So, you’re looking for a developer/any other tech job. How do you ensure that the vacancy and the company suit you maximally? The first thing you s...

These are great questions. One thing that helped me be better in an interview, was to realize that I need to be interviewing the company as well. They want to know what kind of person I am, my goals, If I will be likeable, get along with the team, etc. But you are interviewing them as well. I have worked for some shady startups.
You should be interviewing them as well to make sure they are a good fit for you. With the right questions you should be able to get an idea of how the company is managed, likelihood of it being a hostile work environment, whether you would like them, their values (yes a companies values IMHO are important too), and everything else the above questions would tell you. Also look for where they might be dodging questions which is a red flag.
Overall, good post. Some good questions in there.
I completely agree with you. It's important to remember that you're interviewing the company, too, to define whether the organization and the vacancy meet your expectations.
Awesome list. Most recruiters won't have deep answers to some of these questions, especially about technology and engineering practices. But there's no harm in asking, and these are certainly worth digging into on the phone screen with an engineering team member or manager.
Thank you! Before starting to search for a new tech specialist, a recruiter should arrange an intake meeting with a hiring manager. Perhaps the answers to the tech-related questions won't be deep, but a recruiter should know at least the basic information.
Nice points you're making!
I also really like the Joel Test with these points:
thank you so much, I actually have an interview tomorrow morning, and I was wondering what might be the questions that I need to ask.
5, 7, 10, 12, 13, 15 and 19 are the most important ones for me 🙌🏻
Thanks for your feedback! Good luck with your interview :)
Thanks men! Some of this are really good!
Thanks! I wrote myself a similar list, but this is much more complete!
