Is it bad to ask the interviewer what exactly they are looking for?

Question

she said, " you tell me. " do you think that hurt my chances or did i make it seem like i was not confident in myself?

Answer 1

No you should be able to ask questions like that in interviews. An interview is as much of a chance for the employee to interview the employer. By asking a question like that it was her opportunity to give you some idea on how you might fit into the role. She has a bad interview demeanor if you ask me.
