Job interviews are not just about whether they like you — they are also about whether you should like them.

In this episode, we’re talking about the biggest interview red flags that tell you a company may be disorganized, underpaying, overworking people, or quietly looking for someone to “fix” a dumpster fire with no support.

From vague job descriptions to weird culture comments, unpaid take-home assignments, rushed hiring timelines, and managers who proudly admit the team is “like a family,” these are the signs I want you to notice before you accept the offer.
