Spontaneous questions during the interview
Although the interviewer is the one who leads the job interview, it doesn’t have to be a one-way-street. It is a conversation. You need to know all aspects of the job, because you evaluate the job and them just as they evaluate you.

The best way is to interrupt tactfully with your spontaneous/curious questions from time to time.

Be ready with set of questions:

Moreover, when the interviewer invites you to ask questions, usually at the end of interview, be prepared. Don’t hesitate to bring with you the ready-made question list, ask these questions from a paper and write down the interviewer answers. It shows that you’re an organized person who takes a serious approach.

Tactical questions:

How you format your question may serve you in another important way. If you ask questions that create a picture of yourself working in the job, the interviewer will also take this image in his/her mind. And what could be better for you having this ‘mutual tone’ at the end of the interview?
Remember, it is fine to simulate yourself in the job – The interviewer will also notice + like  it. After all, you are there for the job.
Think how such a question may distinguish yourself from the rest of crowd (i.e. the other candidates).

Questions such as –

➔ “How soon can I start working in this position?” as compared to a similar question “How soon do you plan on filling this position?”
➔ “When shall I expect to hear back from you” as compared to “When do you intend to make the hiring decision?” or “What is the next step for consideration?”
➔ “Who are my team members” as compared to “how many members does the team consist of?”
Being assertive is basically being confident, while still being polite and not aggressive.
