Search for interview questions online. I think Glassdoor used to have a place for interview questions. If it’s a national/multinational corporation, there is a fair chance the standard interview questions are already out there.
Even if that specific set of interview questions isn’t posted online, interview questions for that kind of job have been. If it’s a small company, the hiring manager may doing the same web search to find questions to ask you.
In the worst case, you’ve found a set of questions to start the thought process.
Lastly, near they end of the interview, when they ask if you have questions, ask the interviewer why they like working there. At good places to work, they will have no problem coming up with reasons. An interviewer who struggles to answer the question is a red flag. Either way, you look prepared and look like you’ve given thought to the interview.
I use a similar question: “What do you like best about working here?” I then follow up that conversation with a second question: “We all know every place has something they could improve on. If you could change one thing about working here, what would it be?”
I’ve gotten some very interesting answers to that second question. And because it’s not phrased as a complete negative - “what would you change” vs. the more common “what do you dislike” - it doesn’t put people on the defensive.
