What Should You Choose From #Work-Life #Balance, #Job-Security, #Reputed #Company and #High #Salary.
How to Decide Which Company should you Join.
Today we will talk about choosing the right company.
When we go job hunting looking for opportunities to get into an organization we have a perception and mindset as to what company is the best for us in what a company will offer us as a career opportunity which is going to be really exciting for us to be engaged in.
Once we get into this process of getting into an organization and if we get an interview call, then the company or the organization spends a lot of time trying to gauge us trying to understand us.
Preparing for the Interview
You go through number of interviews from the first introductory interview to technical interviews to technical assessments to psychometric assessments so much so that the company will also get into doing background checks. Not only will it check what is it that you have done in the previous company how is it that you performed in the previous company but also will check your integrity.
They will get to the level of trying to find out whatever you have declared to have done in the company by way of your resume – have you really done that?
That’s the level of things that the organisation gets into. In this bargain the company will also ask us a lot of information which may or may not be required but we end up sharing that information with them just in the hope of getting into that organization because in our perception that is the right organization for us and that organization will help us build a strong career.
What we are talking today is not how we should deal with the organization and what is it that we should and should not be telling in the interviews. We are going to talk about the other thing which is what is it that I should do to be sure that the organization I am joining and the organization I am being interviewed for is actually the best organization for my career.
Checking the Organization
There are two ways in which we do that. First we check what kind of an organisation it is and second we check what kind of managerial hierarchy I have.
When I say managerial hierarchy and I mean what kind of a supervisor that I have and what kind of a skip level supervisor I have.
When you start the process of checking the organization and whether that really is the best organization for you to build a strong career in. You start by the process of trying to gauge and understand how you were treated in the various interactions the company has had with you. Predominantly your interactions at this stage revolve around the interview and the selection process.
You need to try and understand was this organization treating you with respect and as a guest or was this organization trying to treat you as somebody who is desperate and who needs to get into this job.
Evaluating the Offer
The way the offer process is designed and the way the offer is rolled out whether it is trying to make you make some sacrifices to join the organisation on the financial front or on the other fronts. Or is the organisation really considerate about the terms of joining the organization. Strong companies would have a bouquet of offerings that they would offer you. It would not revolve around too many sacrifices or too many choices that you have to make which make you demotivated.
