Hiring looks simple. It is not.

In this episode of With All Due Respect by Kass & Zena explains why this podcast exists and why honest conversations about hiring, work, and leadership are necessary.

They then expose the most common red flags across the hiring process:

1- Candidates who damage their own chances without realising it
2- Hiring managers with unrealistic expectations and shifting criteria
3- Agency recruiters who prioritise speed, volume, and fees over quality and trust
4- Internal talent acquisition teams making poor decisions, lacking commercial judgment, and hiding behind process and policy

This episode is not about being polite. It is about calling out what repeatedly goes wrong and why the hiring system keeps failing the same people.

If you are a candidate, a recruiter, or a hiring manager, this episode will challenge your assumptions and force you to recognise red flags you may have been ignoring.

Saying the things people think but rarely say, at work and beyond.
