On this Friday Free-for-All, Michelle and Sandra get candid about today’s hiring dysfunction—from drawn-out interview cycles and tone-deaf leaders to candidates being mined for free ideas and ghosted within hours. They unpack red flags like “self-starter” roles with no support, endless delays, and bragging about applicant volume instead of fit.

The hosts also touch on fake postings, unresponsive talent teams, and the emotional toll of rejection, while offering quick encouragement to keep going and protect your time. Plus, a teaser for Monday’s episode on HR discrimination.
