What questions, should you ask in an interview?

Does anyone draw a complete blank at interviews? From the time they say "So tell me about yourself" I go into fight or flight mode. It as if they're asking me about someone else's life. They say don't try to memorize your answers, but I have no other choice. I sturdy all these stories and intro's about myself and still can't remember. I don't know what to do. I have had at least 4 interviews and at each one I rambled and didn't get the job.
A couple of good questions would be to ask what the expectations will be for your first 30 days, and then something around how performance is rated each year
This is a nice one.
Pay attention to their questions and responses for anything that's different from your expectations, including possible red flags. Ask follow up questions about those things.
I like ask what a typical day would look like for the role. Why is the position available. What type of training will you receive during your probationary period. And besides coworkers, what is their favorite part of working for the company. If they struggling to answer that last question, you should probably keep looking.
They usually tell you that in the interview.
I would ask - What is something that you think most new hires are not prepared for ? -what are some of the barriers that someone new to the role had dealt with ? - How has your experience been working with the company? - What pointers do you have for me because you have been in this process for a while ?
