    she looks… 😅 tense.. content could be good but it is hard to focus because of her trembling voice…

      Are you sure you’re unable to focus because of her accent? She speaks normally to me

    I have a feeling it very much depends on the field

    The secret to finding the ideal workplace is pretty simple. Stop looking for a paycheck. Research the places that offer jobs that you are interested in doing and that are preferably trained to do. Research the company… look for public comment sections about the job… maybe even interview people that already work there if possible. Do your homework. If everything sounds good… apply there and hope for the best.

    For higher educated people in smaller companies I would agree. For middle and low income workers in bigger companies I would rather disagree. You can have the most eloquent interviewer with all the nice wording and talking about all the core values but who has no idea about the team at all, and the team is very good at making the numbers look better than they are. Or the HR department is the harshest and most controlling but your future team does a wonderful job, friendly with each other and other teams in the company, with only the occasional gripe about the unspeakable lady from HR.

    !!I recently sold some of my long-term position and currently sitting on about 250k, do you think Nvidia is a good buy right now or I have I missed out on a crucial buy period, any good stock recommendation on great performing stocks will be appreciated

      nice! once you hit a big milestone, the next comes easier. How can i reach him , if you don’t mind me asking?

    1. Observe the recruiting process – how do they treat you, promptness of responses, how engaged are other interviewers etc.
    2. Ask questions – what kind of people get promoted here? What are your core values? How is feedback delivered?

    MOST ppl do not have the extreme luxury of choosing their workplace based on ~vibes~

    People need *money* to keep a roof over their head and put food on the table, more often than not to support an entire family. Well intentioned but nonetheless tone deaf .

    This was a perfect reminder as I get caught in the social media vortex out of panic. Thank you!

    Feedback is usually giving out too often and too critical and not for your own benefit

  18. @vongolance

    August 6, 2024 at 12:43 am

    how naive

  19. @77happie

    Creative! but unrealistic

  20. @vasupatel635

    Awesome…

  21. @loando7812

    Her advice may only suit manager positions and environments with an open-minded work culture. In Asian companies, you would never be recruited.

  22. @Bharat_Powerful

    August 6, 2024 at 4:28 am

    Hmm, great video, but the example that you have taken earlier of East Asia it is not applicable there in most of the job cases.
    Reasons – High unemployment, less skills, tough competitions. Asking these questions will definitely pester the interviewer. It looks like we are the interviewer not interviewee (Anyway, the video is absolutely no doubt legendary)
    May be in our time we will ask questions after 2030.
    Thank you.

    I just got 150 inbound job offers (long story…). How did I choose? I used the Japanese Ikigai model. Check it out. Far more substance than what this talk presented, which was very thin IMHO.

    I work for myself. The end, ‘n that’s it. 💪😎✌️ I’d happily d13 before working for anyone else. Seriously, I’m totally fine with that! 🙂

But to earn final peace at the Universe’s endless refrain, we must see all in nothingness… before we start again.”

    Thank you for the tips, however, I really don’t think anyone will show a real company ”face” when asking such questions. Usually, you hear we are very open, and modern, we share feedback etc, nobody will tell you in the interview smb got promoted because of being a friend with a boss 😀

    • @xahepjuliangomezduran8610

      August 9, 2024 at 9:48 am

      I agree with you!! Of course, that was just an example 😅, but as you said, companies won’t show their bad side.

      But in general, her advice can help to discard the worst companies and try to get as many green flags as possible. 😊
