Ding, ding… Alarm bells go off in my head anytime I hear the phrase, ‘Though there are set hours, most employees stay extra so to show they’re committed to this job'. Another big red flag is when the interviewer seems disinterested or unprepared. If they haven't looked over my resume, or if they're asking basic questions they should already know the answers (again, read my resume). Sometimes the interviewer doesn't really provide clear information regarding a role, and that just makes me think…
