Manager in audit currently . I had a job interview for an industry position that was very easy. It was more like the VP selling me on the company rather than him interviewing me. Is this a red flag

Not a red flag. As you get more experience and become more qualified you become a valuable commodity. Employers will want you so in a lot of ways the interview will feel more like you interviewing them. Be sure to ask a lot of questions to make sure it’s a good fit and what you really want and not just the interviewer telling you all the good stuff to get you to jump ship.

Not necessarily. It does sound like they need someone but it still could be a good gig. I’d ensure you ask additional questions to try to sniff out any major issues (reason for job opening, preferred management style, flexibility,etc). Depending on your goals this could be at least a role to get you’re experience to get to another industry job after you have this one your resume.

No nothing wrong. When he said it was more selling than an interview, that’s what tipped me.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
