Hey recruiters, I have an interview soon with an agency with a crappy glassdoor score. I kinda want to bring it up in the interview because it is something to be concerned with. Should I?

Yes, if you want the job then you should DEFINITELY ask them about all the negative things you read on Glassdoor! They’ll be in awe of your amazing common sense and hire you on the spot! Good luck — you got this!

Don't. Ask about the culture.

Well, the two that consistently come up when I talk to candidates are Vayner and Havas. There are others sprinkled in, but those two are mentioned a lot

Nope. Ask about culture, leadership style, what will make you successful in the role, etc. I bet I can guess the agency though.

I’m currently very happy at an agency with a crappy Glassdoor score. Sometimes we accidentally hire crappy people. Those crappy people get laid off or let go and leave crappy reviews. 🤷🏻‍♂️

NO

Recruiter 1 what’s your guess at the agency?
