Be on the lookout for red flags

As you progress through the application process, be on the lookout for red flags that are alerting you of potential problems. If you spot inconsistencies, shady job posts, or unprofessional responses, these are potential indicators that the company could be a headache waiting to happen.

Ask the right questions during the interview

You have advanced to the interview stage and you are ready to wow the hiring manager. While this may seem like a pressure filled event for you, it is also an opportunity to conduct your own final evaluation of the company. Come to the interview ready with questions. You know what you are looking for in your next job, so don’t settle. Set your expectations high and make sure that you like what you hear before accepting your offer.
