The worst career decision I made early in my career was leaving one job that wasn’t really going anywhere (it was a good company but the job was boring) to a bad company where the job ended up being worse than the one I’d left.

I should have trusted my gut and listened to what it was telling me.

I ended up leaving this company after 8 weeks and shortly thereafter, I became a recruiter. So in that regard, things ended up ok but I could have saved myself some grief if I’d paid more attention to what I saw during the interview process.

Here is some advice regarding how you can ensure you are joining a good company and not a bad company:

1. Trust your gut. What is your gut feeling about the company? Don’t ignore glaring signs that something might be wrong that the company isn’t telling you about. Don’t look for bad signs that don’t really exist, simply keep both eyes open and don’t let your desire to change jobs overrule common sense. In the example I gave

g might be wrong that the company isn’t telling you about. Don’t look for bad signs that don’t really exist, simply keep both eyes open and don’t let your desire to change jobs overrule common sense. In the example I gave above, my first bad feeling was when I went to the first interview and found out that the company was located in a converted house which was not what I was expecting. They were supposed to be moving to a real office shortly but I overruled my gut reaction when I should have just walked away from the opportunity.

2. Listen to everyone you interview with especially anyone who isn’t the hiring manager. The hiring manager isn’t likely to spill the beans on anything negative about the company but other people you interview with just might. Sometimes during the interview process, you get to speak with people you’d be working with if you are hired and quite often they’ll shed light on things that you might not otherwise have known since they’re not the one doing the hiring and have no reason to hide anything.

3. If possible, try to find someone who used to wor
