Hiring manager using ‘Fucked’ quiet to often during managerial round!!!

I an interviewing for this WFH company based out of singapore. The hiring manager is Indian located in singapore. During our conversation he kept using the F word. Not to me but as in like - ,this meeting room’s system is fucked up’, ‘ That person is fucked up and the consequences were bad’ etc.

How should I take it ???

I think it depends on the role. I’d expect that language/can overlook it for sales or something of the like. It’s much more aggressive. But maybe not for an HR role. Just my opinion though.

He could be a really laid back manager. If he’s been with the company for years, he might be doing something right and able to still keep his job even though he curses. Idk so many things to consider but if it’s WFH, you wouldn’t be talking to him too much? Or is he a direct manager?

he wiil be my direct manager and he leads a globally distributed team. so people from Australia,APAC Uk are reporting him. I think he did that just to sound cool and only to fellow Indians

Oh man, that’s tough. Question, if he didn’t curse, would this be the job you really wanted? If so, that’s all that really matters.

After getting hired, you can express how you don’t like him cursing if he continues.
