just my 2 cents...
if someone nice, you can ask about how he/she likes the company, how long he/she worked there, what are the things he/she likes about the job / company. if you are from out of town, you can also ask about weather / activities / housing etc. and sometimes, you can start a nice chat from there.
if the manager / someone senior, you can ask about what expectation they have for the new hire, e.g. time to come up to speed, training program available, personalities, technical skills, etc. and also maybe travel requirements, some details on projects they are working on, from the description, you can have a feeling what type of skills they need on top the job description in the ad.
