Very carefully...;)<p>Personally, I find interviewing a candidate more stressful than being interviewed. Stress doesn&#x27;t do anything good for me and when I&#x27;m under stress, I don&#x27;t always show off who I truly am. Rather, I tend to show off a much more uptight version of myself.<p>That said, here are some of the strategies that I use to evaluate potential employers.<p>- When they describe the job, is it full of wishy-washy corporate speak or can they give me an actual sense of what the average Wednesday morning will look like?<p>- When I email them after the interview, do they reply? How long does it take? How is their written grammar?<p>- Is it a new position? If yes, how did the position come about? If no, what happened to the last person?<p>- What happens when I ask questions like, &quot;let&#x27;s say that I need a $25&#x2F;month software product to do my job. What will the process of getting that approved look like?&quot; Are they evasive? Does the answer involve getting 74 signatures and an animal sacrifice? What happens if I change the value to $150 a month?<p>I hope that this helps!
