Sometimes a job interview isn’t a door to a new opportunity, it’s actually an exit sign. Use these tips to help spot red flags: ♻️ Ask about turnover. Low turnover typically means high employee satisfaction. 🕰️ Look out for pressure to accept fast. The right role shouldn’t feel like a sprint. 🌱 Inquire about learning and development. If there’s a budget or mentorship, then there’s likely room for you to grow. So if you’re seeing red flags during a job interview, don’t be afraid to run!

You’ve got this.
