Reverse Interview is a reference list of questions that a job applicant can ask a company during a tech job interview. The idea behind a "reverse interview" is that interviews are a two-way process, the company evaluates you, but you should also be evaluating the company. This list helps you do that by suggesting questions that reveal how a company actually operates, not just what they say in a job posting. The README is the entire product: a curated, categorized set of questions organized into sections. The Role section covers day-to-day tasks, on-call responsibilities, onboarding, and how performance is evaluated. The Tech section asks about the development workflow, testing practices, deployment process, and how technical decisions are made. The Team section covers how work is organized, how conflicts are resolved, and what code review looks like. The Company section asks about growth stage, learning budgets, promotion processes, and legal agreements. There are also sections on compensation and remote work. The list explicitly advises picking only the questions relevant to you rather than asking everything, the goal is to surface "red flags" and understand whether the role is a good fit, not to interrogate the interviewer. The list is available in more than 20 language translations. It is not software, it is a plain text document stored on GitHub, used as a practical reference before or during an interview.
