As much as businesses use it to screen candidates, a job interview can tell applicants a lot about their potential employer too. It's a two-party game. However, most of us aren't as good at it as professional recruiters — they do it for a living and get to practice a whole lot more. So in order to successfully "compete" with them, we have to do our homework. A recent Reddit thread, created by user u/BackgroundChapter970, can be a good place to start.

The 1990s: the decade when teal squiggles and purple triangles reigned supreme.
