How do you read between the lines on workload during interviews? Everyone at a company I’m speaking with keeps emphasizing pace and ownership. The role sounds interesting but also potentially nonstop. Not sure how to assess hours without asking bluntly. How do people gauge this?

What they’re saying doesn’t need to be read between the lines. It’s in big block letters and highlighted.

Take if it you need it until something better comes along. Good luck.

I ask questions during the interview to gauge what the workload is going to be. I always ask what the average amount of hours are for this role. And I ask what problems someone in this role might encounter.

Hello hive mind. I am currently interviewing with three agencies. Pretty far along with two of them. One of the positions is a Jr. copywriter position while the other two are just for a copywriter. How important would it be to not have the “Jr” before the title? Personally, I don’t care about the title, but wonder about future employer’s?
