The exact change
"The questions candidates ask at the end tell me more about how they think than anything else in the interview. Someone who asks 'what would make this a great hire' is thinking about what success means. Someone who asks 'what is the dress code' is thinking about compliance. The difference in how those candidates will actually perform is significant." - VP of Engineering, technology company
The questions candidates ask at the end of an interview often tell interviewers more about how they think than anything else in the conversation.

The difference in how those candidates will actually perform can be significant.
