I'm not an expert on being interviewed here but I would try to determine the organisation's % of expatriate employees before posing my questions.

All depends on how desperately you want the job.

The higher the desperation the more the questions.

(Someone wise said, it is better to stay quiet and have them think you're stupid, than to open your mouth and confirm it...)

The only thing that I can think of is when they hand over their business card, take it with 2 hands.

If they give you their business cards, very likely you'll get the job.

That's hard to say, I always gave my card to interview candidates as courtesy, even if they don't get the job, they may be my customer one day!
I've had folks being shown where the seat location was, the pc was available, but that's still no guarantee that the job is secured until the contract is signed.
