b) Find out and ask if the company/firm offers an "employee professional development" program. Can you take courses/classes that will prepare you for more upward mobility, for job advancement/promotion, in leadership management?

c) Maybe you would like to work from home sometimes, find out if the new employer/prospective employer offers this time of arrangement.
