Laura Leuillier, a career coach, highlights three warning signs of a toxic workplace that can be identified during the recruitment process.
Firstly, a high staff turnover suggests underlying issues within the company, which can be researched through platforms like LinkedIn and Glassdoor.
Secondly, if the hiring manager dominates the interview without allowing the candidate to speak or reacts defensively, it may indicate a challenging work environment.
Lastly, defensive or buzzword-laden responses to questions about company culture can signal potential toxicity.
