Hi folks,
tomorrow i’ll have my last round of interviews for a leadership role at a really cool startup. The interview is with the VP. My question for you all is: what questions should I ask the VP so he thinks I’m smart? (; Thanks in advance!

Get an idea for where he sees the future of the company and then based on what he says, add your own unique take on it and how you would address the problem they're trying to solve. Do a lot of industry research so it's grounded in logic.

Does anyone have advice about interviewing somewhere with bad Yelp/google reviews? Is it OK to ask about it in an interview?

The reviews I read on lots of law office pages are usually people who are accusing the firm of over-billing, not doing enough work or losing/obtaining an unfavorable outcome. How much attention should one pay to this when looking for a new firm at which to work?

I have been working remotely since covid getting nothing but positive reviews. My company is not remote friendly and is now telling me I have to return to the office or I lose my job. I just found out a co-worker had a remote position created for them, without a job posting, without an interview and without the experience required (normally a license or certification would be mandatory). I understand life isn’t fair but is there an ethical problem with this?
