a. "What will happen if I am unable to meet the outcomes for the competency-based orientation?"
b. "Do you still have tuition reimbursement for courses to obtain my next degree?"
c. "How soon will I be responsible for su-pervision of other staff?"
d. "After completing orientation, when will the first pay raise be given?"
C
Prepare a few questions!. This will be the applicant's opportunity to gather important details and possibly impress the interviewer by showing interest in the position. Keep questions on the posi-tive side and inquire about responsibilities of the position. It would be inappropriate to inquire about pay raises at this time. Inquiries about pay and tuition reimbursement would be appropriate after the job offer has been provided.
