These are question ideas to help build rapport with other job roles. The relationships you develop can be assets for advancing technical projects, future opportunities, and gaining perspective regarding what others may be experiencing. The questions are great to ask during a short one-on-one or informal interaction.

- What are their challenges?
- What are they working on?
- What gets them excited?

- Any past friction with engineering?
- Can they show you some of the metrics or reports they look at?
- Do they have the data they need?
- If you had a magic wand and could fix any problem at the company, what would it be?
- What are the top priorities for the organization this year?
