Role Clarity & Alignment Questionnaire

Thank you for considering me for this opportunity. To ensure we make the best decision for both sides, I've prepared a few questions to help us have a deeper, more transparent conversation about the role.

1. The "Why": Motivation & Context

What specific events or goals prompted the opening of this role?

What does a successful first year look like for the person in this role? What key milestones should they hit at 3, 6, and 12 months?

What are the most significant challenges someone in this position will face in their first few months?

2. The "Who": Team & Culture

How would you describe the team's day-to-day working style and communication flow?

What are the team's greatest strengths, and what is one area the team is actively working to improve?

How is performance feedback delivered, and how are disagreements or differing opinions handled within the team?

3. The "What": Role & Growth

Beyond the job description, what are the unspoken expectations or "soft skills" crucial for success in this role?

What does the growth path for this role look like? Are there opportunities for mentorship, training, or taking on leadership responsibilities?

4. The "Where": The Big Picture

Where do you see the company and this team in the next 2-3 years, and how does this role contribute to that vision?

What is one thing that makes people genuinely love working here, and one thing that is a known "work-in-progress"?
