    I did an interview. Went great. Travelled in, suited & booted, presentation prepared. Came in & was not warmly greeted. They asked if I wanted a drink & I said black coffee which they gave me 1 & a half hours later. The whole interview was 3 & a half long. Shown how to use the platform. Did presentation, smoked it. Did questions, smoked them. Really happy with my decade experience. Then, CEO wanted to ask some questions. I did, again well. Told while going home, didn't get it. CEO was intimidated by me.

    Got a call from a female hr manager , she was severely dry, rude, and patronizing. Her first question without explaining absolutely anything was: "Do you have a way to get to the company?" - it's 1.5 hr. drive. I said "yes, but I know you guys provide personnel transportation, right? " - she seemed surprised that i knew and caught her tactic and her omisision of information, she remained quiet. Then she asked "where do you live", I said "are you from [insert my town name]", she didn't answer again, prolonged silence, she said "yes", I said, oh, cause I heard you say something about [insert a whole other city name]. She said "no", so I proceed to give her 5 references, she didn't even say thank you or oh, I see where you live, she didn't care to tell me where the personnel transportation parted from. Her next question was, "Why did you leave x company" , "why did you leave y company.... I was like, getting terrible red flags by then. So I just went ahead and said, "is that more important than my qualifications, cause you haven't asked anything aboutt hem". She said no, but its part of the interview. She kept asking horrible questions with the worst attitude until she asked "how old are you". I froze, decided right there this could not possibly be the place for me and said "mam, that question is discriminative, I can see you think you are above me because I need a job, but for an hr manager, you should know better, and if you are a sample of the type of company you are interviewing me for, I am not interested, thank you for calling ". Bye. I was so disillusioned for hours until I shook it off.

    My current job had a lot of green flags but turned out to be toxic. 1) Easy interview and application 2) low turnover 3) internal promotions 3) No layoffs 4) Good benefits.

      It most likely has to do with your direct supervisor and/or how much what your department does is valued by the senior leadership of the organization. For example, you may have a micromanager when others don’t. And, if the senior executives understand the value that your department brings to the organization, you will have a different experience than someone who is in a department that is valued by those senior leaders.

    @trexinvert 20 днів тому +6

    Tips:
    1. Pre-drive to the company. Checkout the parking, buildings and if there is a security guard maybe go and have a chat. Reserved "named" parking lots is a red flag. Guard telling you people stay late is a red flag. Not enough parking or crowded is also a red flag.
    2.) Ask the hiring manager or any manager you meet how long they have been working there. If they had been there awhile and actually got promoted that is an excellent sign. That is rare. Most managers are "hired in" laterally, which shows most companies don't invest in their own employees.
    3.) When scheduling your interview "you" call the shots what day and what time you want. If their seems to be a lot of re-scheduling or "the mgr is very busy...blah...blah" that is red sign.
    4.) After or during the interview if the company "does not" offer to give you a quick tour. Big redflag.

    One of my managers during my interview kept saying what very well could've been a red flag, and that was she kept repeating something to the extent of "Just want to make sure you fit in" (it was not those words exactly, but it was the sentiment). She kept going on about everyone being friendly and relaxed. I am very lucky, she was right, everyone is very friendly and helpful. I wouldn't use the word "relaxed" given how hard everyone works...but if you need help, people will assist and nobody is trying to backstab anyone else.
    I also almost never hear any gossip. Almost...the same manager did reveal a very odd comment a former employee flat out told them about knowing how to be emotionally manipulative (their positon was partially sales-related, but still...not a good thing to ever just tell your boss). Because I genuinely do like my coworkers and know they've been here for years, I actually had to blink back tears when they said he'd been let go. When I admitted this to the manager, ironically during a lunch outing to welcome in his replacement, that's when she informed she'd always kept one eye open on that guy after his emotional manipulation revelation 😅.
    Wait. That might be why she kept wanting to ensure I actually would fit in! 😂😂😂

    When you get an offer, watch out for an arbitration clause! This means that if you have to sue the company (like for harassment, for example) and you signed an arbitration clause, you can't take them to public court, nor can you do a class-action lawsuit, and there's no appeal. Instead, the company appoints a judge or attorney (ON THEIR PAYROLL) who acts as a judge AND jury for the case. You'll most likely lose, and if you win, your settlement will be substantially less.

    I'm opening up a job and throwing it on a silver plater, schedule your own hours, good pay, and no drama. People actually get very nervous like there is no way the job can be real. We live in a very outdoors based culture. When you tell people "We aren't family, you have your own family, the goal is you get the job done, if the job gets done you leave and go hiking, skii, whatever it is you like doing." Get your stuff done and go home, it freaks them out. We do neuroscience work so we don't want people sitting around just to milk a clock, that trains the brain to be disengaged.

    I love this - but I really find some of this info is tough to garner unless you're in the company for a while :) I do think the interviews are key though - if its fun, then it's awesome, if it's processy its tough - one company I interviewed was up front but said "well a decision will probably take 3-4 months and it's the first of 8 interviews" which was a red flag for me - process for process sake

    Sounds like a unicorn these days, but definitely helpful to watch out for at least some of this.
    Just a question to you and your community:
    I noticed that in my current job, 9 people in 7 years moved away, 1 got fired the other 8 left cuz of burnout, stress or no perspective.
    Since this is my first real job I just wanted to ask if that is "normal" or insane...
    To me it feels insane and I thought many times to move away, rarely get any breaks (cuz retail is sort of a part of the job, but not entirely), work times are abysmal, people are mean, its a small team too. But cant move away currently cuz of contract things. But maybe I do overthink and interpret too much into it.

      It’s insane but it’s also the norm. When a company isn’t meeting corporate financial expectations or profit is down a company makes life miserable so people will quit and they fire people more readily than they normally would. Never trust anyone in the work place. Make yourself as valuable as possible with an eye toward your next job.

      Thank you, thats basically exaclty the point, it made for years red numbers but it belongs to a bigger corp who does good even in corona.
      Now we make green numbers (and yes thas a huge part because of me, but nobody sees it that way sadly, I pulled the corp from 42 4star review to 200 reviews 4,9star) and they just put up the ladder "work harder".
      I do have the least amount of mistake quote of all, I make the most sales volume per day (but thats of course not because of me, its random how many people come, weird, when I'm not there they only make the half if..)
      I always be up right there, the other tech reps do like me a lot, I even got free stuff from them - which I have to pay for in our tip cash register because it would be not fair otherwise to the other in our team :°) )
      Yet they treat me like a infantil little kid that has zero clue of anything and ciritize and yell me even sometimes for basically nothing, if others do the same - nothing said at all.

    I worked for a company that sent me places to take assessments before they hired me. I took the job, but years later, they used the supposed scores on these assessments as reasons to pass me up for internal opportunities. I had good annual evaluations. They did promote a lot of other people from within, but it didn't work out for me. Needless to say I left.

    One bad experience I had in an interview process was that the manager called me multiple times doing phone interviews on his own schedule. "I have a hard stop. Can I call you back" 8 phone calls on top of 4 face to face interviews. Oh and the worst low ball offer ever. I said no, and the manager called back in a panic with a 20k increase. What a waste of time.

    How should I structure my resume to get a sales job?

I haven’t maximized the benefits yet bc navigating the day to day has been enough. But I will. And I’ll never take this opportunity for granted and hope to ride it a long way. Knock on wood. 😊😂💃

    I really disagree with benefits. 99% have same benefits due to simple reason - its most effective benefits pack. I have only minimal requirements for benefits, and I dont want company to invent benefits every 6 months. and when you as company invent new good benefit, in few months its matched by your competition. so benefits does not mean much, unless they are really sub-par.

    Hi Bryan can you please explain why, when filling out an application the employer always asks for your demographic and veteran status? The company I'm working with now even goes as far as to ask if I'm a disable veteran, or a combat award veteran. Is there something there gaining from this information? Is there anything I can gain from giving out this information? Does this benefit me any way in telling my employer or not disclosing that information.

They scheduled one call with the pla t manager which got canceled and instead I was to interview with the hiring manager, who AGAIN canceled the day of. Mind you, it was a SHE manager. 4 calls, 5 scheduled meetings, 3 canceled, 1.5 months of nothing. The HR manager was very kind a d respectful and open, he didn't belong in that company.
