Would you say that getting hired on the job is considered a red flag? I feel like the interviews at my last several jobs have been way too informal and we pretty much lead them to think they got the job...in which most of the time they do... and I feel like there is much to be desired for a lot of these ppl, but at this rate finding a good hire is darn near impossible. What do you all think?

Do you mean getting hired on the spot during an interview? I have had that happen before and I honestly was flattered. I recognized that they needed someone ASAP and felt they had found the right fit in me. That may not be the case but that is sure what I told myself haha.

uplifting

That is exactly what I meant! I can see how it would be flattering for the interviewee. I was just looking at it from the perspective of the interviewer…. But I guess if you know, you know. But I'm sure sometimes the decision can be made a little too hastily.… like maybe instead of the automatic hire they can be invited to come shadow a day? Meet the staff? Meet the population they will be working with?

I have a follow up question- do you think it is just as much of a red flag for a potential employee to accept on the spot?

Bridge between Customer Support and Product Design?

Hiya! I am in the final round of interviews at an EdTech platform for a role that is the bridge between the Customer Support and UX/Product Design teams. I act as that bridge in my current role but on a more informal basis because it is a smaller company.

Would anyone be willing to share their perspective (positive or negative) on the Product/UX end of this relationship? I want to make sure to ask the right questions.
Thank you!
