I had an interview today. I did it, I asked THE question, “based on our conversation, is there anything leaving you with hesitancy in further considering me for the position?” And I got the job!! 🎉🎉

I don't love the hesitancy question because I feel like it is forcing them to conjure negative thoughts about you that otherwise may not be there.

I asked that question of “Is there anything leaving you with hesitation to hire me” and I got the call back for the job within an hour!!!

I love your hard question. My favourite is "What attracted you to my CV?"

Hi Cassandra. Yesterday, 7/8/25, I took a leap of crazy and asked my last question. "Based on what we have talked about today, is there anything that is leaving you with any hesitancy about hiring me for this position?" His answer, after a brief pause, was "If I did, I think it would be nitpicking." There was a moment of freedom after he said that. 2 hrs later, my staffing agency called and told me they had "a one and done" response and hired me. Thanks for a question I never thought I would have asked. I was one of those who didn't ask questions at the end in the past. Thank you very much again.

The time I asked, "Based on our conversation, is there anything leaving you with hesitancy..." they told me to never ask that question in interview in the future. Now I am scared🙃

I’ve been on the job hunt for 3 months. After submitting close to 100 (tailored resume) applications, finally got a call for an informal recruiter interview, and was accepted to move to round 2 for an interview with the dept manager. Took the weekend to prep my answers to the behavior questions they’d be asking me & listened to your videos for inspo. I may have fumbled my way through all the story telling during my 2nd interview, but I nailed the end with a few of your questions. The manager verbally said ‘ooh that’s a good question’ to ‘what would you like the person filling this role to have accomplished within the first 90 days?’ & ‘is there anything about our conversation today that makes you hesitant to hire me?’ They called to get my references the next day, and extended me an offer that same afternoon. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Without doubt your advice helped me land this (career pivot!) role- on my very first interview! THANK YOU!! 🙏🏼

I disagree with the recommendation to not reverse-interview. Recently, I developed a thorough list of requirements as my criteria and based on that I have been making general inquiries and asking behavioral-based questions (which is typically necessary to get proper evidence of claims related culture or leadership/management style). This has not only allowed me to start getting much higher quality information for which I can use to evaluate potential job offers, but I have noticed that it seems to make a very positive impression on the employers as well. <br><br>Of course, it is prudent to go about it in a conversational manner, and I will typically only ask 1 behavioral-based and a few questions total in any one interview. But for me, this has been a game-changer in how interviews transpire overall, possibly even more so than any prep-work for my own responses!
