Signs a Company Is Healthy or Headed for Layoffs
One of the biggest mistakes professionals make is assuming that because a company is hiring… the company must be healthy.
Uh, sadly, no.
Sometimes they're putting fresh paint on the walls and didn't bother to patch the concrete underneath.
Today, I have a short, but powerful lesson on how to evaluate whether you're joining a company that's going up…
Or is sinking, but just doesn't know it yet.
Of course, no one has a crystal ball.
But as your dear ole' Coach Andy likes to say…
I can see around corners because I know what to look for.
In the next 5+ minutes, you too will have my see-around-the-corner goggles.
Just ask a few questions and you'll know whether their needle is moving up or down.
Smart professionals don't just evaluate the job.
They evaluate the future of the company offering it.
