Comment on Ask HN: How do you find the companies you want to work for?

Comments

Ask about the schedule of meetings and the normal work hours of the developers on the team you're interviewing for. Inquire about the work environment, is it cubes / walls, or large tables and open work spaces. What are the projects they're working on and technologies they're using? What are they looking for?

I feel you can get a sense of the vibe from talking to the interviewers, seeing how they act, what they say, and how they are leading the interview.

However, sometimes you don't know about the culture until actually working there, so it is good to try to interview them while they're interviewing you to make sure it's a place you want to work.
