Hi guys,
So, next week I have a second interview via teams. This is a competency-based interview. I know the hiring manager personally as I worked with him for 5 years and we are also friends on Facebook. I wouldn't say he is a friend as such, but an ex-colleague and more of an acquaintance. When I saw the job come up, I was aware he was the hiring manager so made contact with him for more information surrounding the role. From there I made an application which led to a telephone interview (which he conducted). We discussed the role, he asked a few questions and then we had a catch-up. Now, I have been invited to a second interview which will take place over teams with the hiring manager, his manager and a member of HR.
My question is, would it be seen as a big no-no to ask him in advance for a few pointers and to give me an idea of what questions to expect in the interview?
Thanks in advance,
