- How close is the job to my job goals?
- Is this job a good vehicle to my goals?
- What are the people like?
- How do I feel about my manager?
- How do I feel about the organisation's goals?
- How did I feel about the organisational climate (e.g. hours people
are expected to work)?
- What is the commute like?
- Is the geographical move, if any, agreeable?
- Are the duties of the job ones that I am willing to undertake?
- Does the work schedule fit my life-style (9 to 5, flexible hours,
part-time, variable schedule)?
- Is the travel enough? Too much?
- Is the compensation adequate? Can I negotiate for more in the
near future?
- Are the benefits adequate? If not, can I negotiate for additional
ones (is additional homework needed?)?
- What hesitations do I have, if any! And how serious are these?
- What additional information do I need to make a decision (talk
to others, see the facility again)?
Remember that the job may not be perfect. All your needs and values
may not be met, but are your most important ones being filled? If
you are uncertain about your proprieties, go back and do some self-assessment
exercises to clarify your own thinking. If you are unsure about whether
the job would be a good move even though you like it, check with others
in the field.
