Sometimes during interviews you get a really good feeling about the place, other times something just feels slightly off but you can’t explain why.
Have you ever trusted that feeling and turned down a job because of it, or do you usually wait until you’ve actually worked there to decide?

I am trying to develop the discernment to see before I take a position. Or at least to see the signs while on a trial shift. I wouldn’t want to take a job and find out later down the line

I have ignored a feeling and gone with it to my detriment I am afraid to say. Knocked my confidence a little with jobs. Go with your gut I say always if it doesn't feel right that is you picking up on something. Go where you feel happy and have nice feelings about.

Not because of that feeling alone. When it's been accompanied or caused by other red flags, then yes. If you get a bad vibe during the interview process, you should definitely think twice before accepting any offer that comes your way.

Depends on how big a flag it is that I’m seeing. A slight off feeling can come from a ton of different things. I’d rather start the work and then decide if there’s nothing apparent.

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?
