6. Should I ask questions at my interview?

You should ask questions at any interview, not just for any specific role. Always come prepared with some pointed questions, and then add any that you think of during the interview. By asking questions, you’ll find out information that may not be on our website or in our job posting. It’s also a good way to get an opinion from a P&Ger, or hear about their personal experiences. Be specific: for example, “How many brands will I work on as a P&G Sales Manager?” Other questions could include “What is the career path like at P&G?” or “Does P&G offer childcare?” Remember to do your research so that you’re not asking questions that are readily available on the P&G careers or corporate website.
