Episode 9 - Workplace Fit

In this episode of Design Office Hours, I answer a deceptively simple question with very real consequences: How do you choose the right workplace when you have options? From evaluating team culture to listening to your gut, this episode walks through what to pay attention to—especially when two jobs look equally good on paper. Here's what I cover: How to go beyond the job title and assess team dynamics Smart questions to ask in interviews (hint: think about culture and conflict) Why the comfortable job may not be where you grow the most How to trust your gut—without losing perspective The danger of choosing a brand name over actual fit Whether you're a student choosing your first internship or a designer switching roles, this episode is a reality check for making thoughtful, aligned career choices.
