Zillow CEO Jeremy Wacksman revealed that some C-suite candidates make a serious misstep when it comes to a basic interview expectation: actually looking into the company that they’re applying to.
“I’m mostly talking to executive hires at this point. An obvious red flag is if they haven’t done their homework, which still kind of surprises me,” Wacksman told CNBC’s Make It in a recent interview.
