Twilio’s Answer
When interviewing, ask the candidate what their goals are for the position within the next three to six months. It gives you an idea of what the hiring manager is looking for in their candidate. Based on their answers, you can then ask follow-up questions to really dig into the position and share how you have the qualifications to get them to their 3-6 month goals.

What are the biggest challenges for this role? - This will give you insights into current friction points you will come across in the role, or it will give you a sense of the challenges the hiring manager wants this role to “solve”.

Could you describe what a regular day looks like at this job? - The answer to this will tell you a lot about the manager (their style), the team culture, and general team processes. A good look into the environment you would potentially fit into.
