Old answer just popped up on Quora - and it is a good one! ""When hiring a management or C level person, one question I ask on the second interview is:

If I were to hire you for this job and I granted you three promises (not wishes) with regard to working here, what would they be? It has always changed the tone of the conversation. Almost without fail they start to talk about things they wanted to talk about but were unsure if they should talk about."

I would imagine you'd get some very interesting responses to what they'd want promised.
