  • Four Interviewers Ruining Your Hiring

    Four Interviewers Ruining Your Hiring
    Dec 18 2025
    A bad interview doesn’t just lose candidates — it damages your employer brand, your reputation, and your future hiring pipeline. In this episode, we break down the four most common types of interviewers who unintentionally (and sometimes intentionally) sabotage the interview process: the Rambler, the Power Tripper, the Interrogator, and the Walking Red Flag. Through real stories, hard data, and firsthand experience, we unpack why these interviewer behaviors persist, how they show up in real interviews, and what they signal to candidates about company culture. We also flip the script and define what a green flag hiring manager actually looks like — and how small behavior changes can dramatically improve hiring outcomes, candidate experience, and long-term trust. If you hire people, interview candidates, or coach hiring managers, this episode is your field guide. Takeaways Why negative interview experiences drive top candidates away The four interviewer archetypes that derail hiring decisions How interviewer behavior reflects company culture Why “gut instinct” is not a hiring strategy The real risks of illegal and non-job-related questions How power dynamics quietly sabotage interviews Why candidates remember interviews long after hiring managers forget them What candidates interpret as red flags — even when unintentional How interviewer training directly impacts hiring quality The core traits of a green flag hiring manager Timestamps 00:00 — A real interview story that shouldn’t happen in 2019 01:16 — Why interview behavior matters more than companies think 01:54 — Interviewer Type #1: The Rambler 03:38 — Interviewer Type #2: The Power Tripper 05:16 — How negative interviews spread faster than positive ones 06:00 — Interviewer Type #3: The Interrogator 08:39 — Interviewer Type #4: The Walking Red Flag 11:33 — What defines a green flag hiring manager 15:06 — Real examples of positive interview experiences 18:24 — “Dear Expert Interviewers” — listener stories and karma Keywords bad interview experience hiring manager mistakes interview red flags candidate experience interviewer training illegal interview questions hiring bias employer brand damage green flag hiring manager interview best practices
