Job Description Red Flag Checker
Paste a job posting and see what its wording may be hiding, with the question to ask about each point before you spend time on an application.
What counts as a red flag here
None of these words prove a job is bad. They are patterns that often go with unclear roles, long hours, low or hidden pay, or an employer who hasn't thought hard about the job. So instead of a verdict, the checker gives you a question for each one that you can ask the recruiter in the first call or in an email.
It looks for: hype titles ("ninja", "rockstar"), phrases that can mean an unbounded role ("wear many hats", "other duties as assigned"), culture phrases that can hide long hours ("work hard, play hard", "we're a family"), no pay range or "competitive salary", commission-only or unpaid work, "24/7" availability, a title that doesn't match the experience asked for, and a requirements list so long that nobody could meet it.
How to use the questions
Pick the two or three that matter most to you and ask them early, politely and in plain words: "What is the pay range?", "What does a typical week look like?", "How many days off did the team take last year?". How clearly and willingly they answer is itself useful information.

What it can't tell you
It can't see the company, its reviews, its funding or whether the job is still open. A posting with no flags can still be a poor job, and a flagged posting can be a perfectly good one written in a hurry. Use it to decide what to ask, not whether to apply.
Check your resume against this posting
Paste the job posting into Rezumz and see how your resume matches its real requirements, which skills are missing, and what to change, without inventing anything.
Questions
Is "fast-paced" really a red flag?
On its own, usually not; it is very common. It is marked minor because it can mean anything from busy and well-run to constantly firefighting. The question to ask is what drives the pace.
What if the posting doesn't mention pay?
It is worth asking before you invest time. In many places employers are required to publish a range, and if they can't tell you one early, that is information too.
Does it use AI or store the posting?
No. It is a set of rules running in your browser. Nothing is sent or stored.
What should I do once I know the questions?
Keep them for the first conversation. And check your resume against the same posting: Rezumz can show how well your resume matches the real requirements.
