A quick-read article outlining 5 great ways that writing and documenting your thoughts, decisions and experiences can help to facilitate personal growth and wisdom.

Job candidates often prepare by researching the company, outlining potential questions to ask, and thinking of ways to impress the interviewer with their qualifications. This article reminds us that the interviewer should also be attempting to impress the candidate, and lists 8 potential red flags at an interview that could suggest difficulties at the company down the line after accepting an offer. Warning signs include the hiring manager not reading your resume/CV beforehand and the interviewer checking their email during the interview.
