10 Signs Job is Dead-end

OR … Top 10 Reasons to Run For The Door!

Number 10: The position for which you are interviewing is vacant. Well run companies don’t create vacancies. Before letting someone go or sensing if someone wants to go, they will be ready with a replacement

Number 9: When asked how the company measures its success in the market, the Interviewer offered a self-constructed analysis based purely on unclear assumption, meaning … he was making it up!

Number 8: Interviewer could offer only vague generalizations about where the company would like to be, concluding with “hey, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”. The correct thinking: Better improve it before someone else does.

Number 7: When you bring up Internet Marketing or SEO his or her eyes start to close

Number 6: When asked who they feel are their main competitors, you’re fed you the old unsubstantiated line, we don’t have any

Number 5: When you ask how the position has changed over the years the response is “it hasn’t”

Number 4: When you ask the interviewer to tell you something about the particulars of the job you hear “very steady work; lots of job security”. In other words, you’re not going anywhere from here!

Number 3: When you ask if the Interviewer has any tips before you leave and he or she says, “Just make sure you have some fun out there”

The Number 2 reason you know you are interviewing for a dead-end job: When you ask the interviewer, your would-be boss, how long he or she has been in their job and you hear “since the company started”

And finally, THE NUMBER 1 REASON YOU WILL KNOW IT’S A DEAD-END JOB AND SHOULD HIGH-TAIL IT TO THE DOOR …

When asked if happy with where the company is today, he or she replies “Hey, it pays the bill at the Club and keeps the kids in tennis lessons!”

Hope this helps!
