Most of the literature about interviews is focused on how to give good answers and get an offer letter. I talk to a lot of candidates that forget that interviewing is a bi-directional process. In the world of technology companies and startups specifically the candidates are interviewing the company just as much as the company is interviewing them. Over the years I have collected some questions that I believe could help someone understand if the opportunity is right for them. Here are some areas that I believe every candidate should touch through the interview process: Business Who are the customers? What happens if they don’t have your product? What are the revenues right now and what are the means of ramping them up? What is the financing now and how much runway do you have left? When delivering your product/service - how much of the process is digital and how much of the process involves people or hard assets? Are those non-digital parts of your service on your books/p
