6 Questions You Should Never Ask at the Interview Candidates who ask these questions don't remain candidates for long

Here are five more bad questions you might be tempted to ask and what hiring managers will  think when they hear them:
What you ask: Is job-sharing a possibility?
What they think: Possibly, but does this mean you can't give us a commitment for full-time work?
What you ask: Can you tell me whether you have considered the incredible benefits of telecommuting for this position?
What they think: Why do you want to get out of the office before you have even seen it?
What you ask: I understand that employee paychecks are electronically deposited. Can I get my paycheck in the old-fashioned way?
What they think: You are already asking for exceptions. What's next? And are you afraid of technology?
What you ask: I won't have to work for someone with less education than I have, will I?
What they think: You clearly have a chip on your shoulder. Why should we take a chance that you don't have other interpersonal issues?
What you ask: The job description mentions weekend work. Are you serious?
What they think: We're serious about the job description. We're suddenly less serious about you.
