There is a lot to consider when making a career decision. After viewing the LinkedIn Learning video Negotiating Your Job Offer and then completing the form Getting Clear on What You want, consider these questions:
What are your top 3 must-haves and top 3 walkaways when considering a career/job offer?
Describe what is the biggest consideration for you in determining a good career fit. How negotiable is that for you? Explain.
My top 3 must-haves when considering a career/job offer are:
1. A competitive salary that meets my financial goals and is commensurate with the job requirements;
2. A benefits package that adequately covers my health care needs and provides me with some additional security, such as retirement savings or other forms of insurance;
3. An opportunity for professional growth, either through training opportunities or by being in an environment where I can continually learn and develop new skills.
My top 3 walkaways when considering a career/job offer are:
1. Unreasonable expectations around hours worked per week;
2. Lack of meaningful feedback on performance;
3. Inadequate resources to complete the tasks expected of me in the role.
The biggest consideration for me in determining a good career fit is finding an employer who values me and respects my ideas, opinions, and contributions to their organization. This should be reflected in how they treat their employees generally as well as specifically within my role and department. I am willing to negotiate certain aspects of this feeling – such as pay structure or job title – but it is essential that I feel respected by those around me so that I will remain engaged in my work over time.
