Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Remember that an interview is a two-way conversation: The questions you ask are just as important as the answers you provide. By asking insightful questions, you can demonstrate your understanding of the organization, steer the discussion into areas that allow you to present your qualifications to best advantage, and verify for yourself whether this is a good opportunity. Plus, interviewers expect you to ask questions and look negatively on candidates who don't have any questions to ask.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Interviews give employers the chance to go beyond the basic data of your rsum to get to know you and to answer two essential questions. The first is whether you can handle the responsibilities of the position. Naturally, the more you know about the demands of the position, and the more you've thought about how your skills match those demands, the better you'll be able to respond. The second essential question is whether you will be a good fit with the organization and the target position. All good employers want people who are confident, dedicated, positive, curious, courteous, ethical, and willing to commit to something larger than their own individual goals. Companies also look for fit with their individual cultures. Employers expect serious candidates to demonstrate an understanding of the company's operations, its markets, and its strategic and tactical challenges. You've already done some initial research to identify companies of interest, but when you're invited to an interview, it's time to dig a little deeper. Making this effort demonstrates your interest in the company, and it identifies you as a business professional who knows the importance of investigation and analysis.
