Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
This repository is a curated list of questions written in Chinese that job candidates can ask during a technical job interview. The idea is a "reverse interview", instead of only answering the interviewer's questions, candidates use this list to ask thoughtful questions back to the company they are considering joining. The questions span many areas of professional life: your day-to-day responsibilities, the team's working style and size, the company's technical practices (such as how they track bugs, test code, and deploy changes), team communication, company culture, work-life balance, remote work policies, salary and benefits, and how the company handles conflict or difficult situations. There are also sections covering business health, holiday and leave policies, and professional development budgets. The readme notes that not every question applies to every role or company, and candidates should pick the ones most relevant to them rather than asking everything. It also includes links to related resources for further inspiration, and is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 license. The content is largely translated from an English-language original, with additional contributions from the community.
A Chinese-language list of smart questions job candidates can ask companies during technical interviews, covering team culture, work-life balance, salary, and tech practices.
