The best questions, in my opinion, are the ones that organically come up in the context of our conversation. The kinds of questions where the candidate wants to dig a little deeper into the problems the business is trying to solve for customers or the details around the expectations of the role, etc.
There will always be generic questions that are very important, ie. culture of the company, how success is defined, etc - but these should be balanced with thoughtful, contextual questions that show you're appetite for envisioning yourself within the role.
