What Is Important to You?

After writing about a number of career topics this year, I am now asking one question.

What is the most factor in your next job? I will create a list of possibilities.

1. Money (Salary)

2. Face to Face interaction with public

3. Upward Mobility

4. Minimum Supervision

5. Office Culture

6. Other

My answer to this question is: (6) other. The most important factor for me in my next job is to have a boss that I can respect. I will work best for a boss that I can respect. I will always respect my boss as a human being but it will be a major plus for me to respect them as my supervisor. My definition of a good boss or supervisor is someone who is fair, consistent, and someone who clearly communicates their expectations of me.

Think about what is most important to you in your next job because you may be asked about it in your next interview.
