Questions You Shouldn't Ask At The Initial Interview
« on: Sep 27, 2008, 02:44 pm »
I've look around the employment thread quite a bit. I'm wondering what are some questions that you shouldn't ask during an initial interview and reserve for later if you are interview again by the same prospective employer?

Thanks,
PSMAK

Are you talking about a meet & greet interview, or a call for a particular job on a specific production?

I think there are questions one may ask that would make you look naive or non-experienced.

Questions that point out a lack of research on your part about the theater you are applying to could be problematic.
