Those things you've studied and that interest you. That you can't know enough about. And ironically that you know so well that you know you don't know all about. That knowing that you don't know gives you the confidence to be in the inquiry state. Of being what I call "in the question".
In the context of the job interview you should know all the obvious stuff so that the only things people can tell you are the things that only they know. This allows your questions to be based on insight rather than ignorance.
The person with the smartest answers is the person that asked the smartest questions.
Before an interview, ask and find the answers to these questions:
- What do you know about the person across from you?
- What do you know about their interests?
- What do they value?
- What do you know about their company?
- What does it value?
- What do you know about their industry?
- What does it value?
- What do you know about their competition?
- What do they value?
- What about all of the above do YOU value?
