面对不同的面试官，该问的问题也不同。下面是一些针对执行官和未来同事的问题。

The Executive¹: The Industry Expert

执行官：业内专家

Senior managers and executives² are likely to be most knowledgeable³ about the latest happenings in their industry. If you'll be working closely with an executive, you can ask them some specifics about the job. But you should focus most of your questions on the future of the company and the industry. This is your chance to show off your industry knowledge!

资深经理和执行官们可能最了解当前行业的最新动态。如果你将密切地和一位执行官工作，你可以问问这他们关于工作的细节。但是你的大多数问题都应该集中在公司及行业的未来方面。这可是你“炫耀”行业知识的一个机会！

Some questions to ask a senior manager or executive:

适合问资深经理或执行官的问题有：

* How do you think this industry will change in the next five years? 你认为这个行业在未来五年后将发生什么变化？

* What do you think gives this company an edge over its competitors? 你认为这家公司和竞争者相比优势在哪儿？

* What's the company's biggest challenge? How is it planning to meet that challenge? 公司面临最大的挑战是什么？计划如何应对？

The Coworker: The Straight-Talker

同事：直率的同行

Some interviews will also include a meeting with a potential coworker -- the interviewer most likely to "tell it how it is." A potential colleague may be most candid⁴ about the job, its challenges and the work environment. However, don't expect inside information -- and certainly don't ask for it.

有些面试还会邀请未来可能成为同事的人参加。未来的同事最可能是“照实说”的人。未来可能成为的同事对工作、工作中的挑战及工作环境是最坦白的。不过，你不要指望获得“内部”消息——当然更不要去问。

* How would you describe the work environment at the company? 你认为公司的工作环境怎样？

* What's the most enjoyable part of your job? What's the most challenging part? 你工作中最开心的部分是什么？最具挑战性的是什么？
