In my last few posts, I explored 10 questions that you should ask a:

• Potential employer (10 Questions to Ask a Potential Employer)
• Potential spouse (10 Questions to Ask a Potential Spouse)
• Salesperson (10 Questions to Ask a Salesperson)
• Potential client (10 Questions to Ask a Potential Client)
• Potential employee

With this post, I will look at potential employees.  Here are the specific questions I would start with:

1. What is your work ethic?
2. How do you learn?
3. Can you work alone?
4. Can you work in a team?
5. How do you handle problems?
6. What are your strengths and weaknesses?
7. What is your greatest success?
8. What is your greatest failure?
9. What do you expect?
10. Can you provide me with references?

What would you ask?
