The top job interview tip from a former Spotify HR professional is to ask "humblebrag questions."

During a job interview, it's important to remember that you are also evaluating the potential employer.

The interview presents an opportunity for you to demonstrate your skills and for you to understand the company's culture, team dynamics, and workload. Plan the questions you'll ask and incorporate them into the conversation or ask them at the end when the opportunity arises.

Do I have any opportunity to use something like that at Spotify?""

They want you to understand 'your place in this universe'

There are multiple benefits to asking this type of question.

When hiring managers evaluate potential candidates, they look for someone who can quickly adapt to the role without requiring extensive training, according to Space. Your attention to detail suggests that you comprehend your role in the grand scheme of things, he adds.

What sets you apart from others who may ask about success in the first 30 days of a new role is your ability to reflect on your own experience and apply your knowledge to this new situation.
