I’ve made the mistake before. Yes, I forgot to ask questions at the end of the interview.
It’s a mistake easily made, once you’ve been asked what seems like a million questions and you’ve been hounded on your CV it’s finally your turn.
I often feel that everything has been covered, but this usually down to mental tiredness, so I’ve formulated five questions to which will impress the interviewed during your next interview.

1. Do you have any objections or concerns regarding my ability to do this job?

This is an excellent question since it gives you the opportunity to answer any issues they may have there and then. If they are convinced that you could the job then by them stating this is a sign of acceptance. Once acceptance is made in ones mind then the situation becomes reality.

2. Are there any concerns I’d need to address in order to become your first choice?

This question can follow on from the first and again if the employer offers nothing then this can be a good sign. But be prepared to get to the crux of the issue. Here the recruiter could tell you exactly what credentials other candidates have to offer which they consider advantageous. Any issues hey raised should be handled with care. Offer a solution to their concerns with examples addressing the issues you can recall from previous experience.

3. What’s the next stage?

This is a question that is great to end on and can really set yourself apart from the competition. It demonstrates not only that you are keen but also it ends the interview on a positive note
