Red flags if people do these within 5 minutes after you meet them.
1. Do they badmouth others?
2. Do they want you to bend the rules (e.g. deadlines) for them?
3. Trust your gut. If they make you feel skeevy in the first 5 minutes after meeting them while trying to put their best foot forward, imagine what they will be like later.
I think it'd be helpful if she were to explain the levels these signs can take. It's very easy to find things when you're looking for them, even if they're not actually there. And most people exhibit any of these to some degree (i.e. she should qualify bad-mouthing or rule-bending: is it only egregious, etc.?).
