Red flags & green flags

Spot the signals before you apply.

▲ Caution signals

  • Multiple recent reports of no response after interviews
  • Unclear next steps after final rounds
  • Lengthy take-home assignments with no feedback
  • Repeated reports that a process ended without closure

● Positive signals

  • Recent reports of timely communication
  • Clear interview stages and expectations
  • Candidates report outcomes were communicated
  • Consistent updates throughout the process

Signals always show report count, period and evidence level. We never label a company fraudulent or a job a "ghost job" based on unverified reports.
