Getting the Right Fit

This week, we've heard another disappointing story from Wall Street.

It's just another example in a string of incidents that have us questioning the state of corporate leadership and values not on only in North America but world wide.

As job seeker you may want to reconfirm or rediscover the following values in today's current business environment:

  1. Honesty, Integrity, Morality.

  2. Adaptability and Flexibility.

  3. Dedication, Work Ethic, Tenacity.

You probably never thought of looking at an employer's values.

Seeking an employer who best matches your temperament and life style is like looking for a good marriage partner. You first need to know yourself and what is important to you before you start making some decisions.

I don't know if there are any short cuts in that process. Finding the right career for yourself is a personal journey no one can travel for you. And it takes time -- time that often takes years.

Read more about how you can find employers who best match your temperament and life style in "Match Your Temperament With the Corporate Culture of Prospective Employers." It could save you time and effort - and put your career on the right track.

Then, join this week's discussion on the eSight Networking Forum by replying to this question:

  What's the best way to tell whether you'll fit in with a prospective employer in terms of guiding values?

PS: We received this note from Arun in India:

  "I receive your NetWork News ..., and I really
  enjoy reading them. It gives me so much motivation
  and encouragement, and it drives me ahead, given
  so many negative thoughts and negative people in
  this world. It is also practical -- not making any
  'out-of-the-world' suggestions."

  "I really enjoyed the saying of Fernando Botelho,
  and it makes so much sense not to give up
  something you are persisting. Although everyone
  knows about these things, the important thing is
  to keep listening to such messages time and time
  again to drive you ahead. I sincerely believe that
  the world is not made up only of roses and
  everyone is happy and contented and there is no
  trouble at all. The fact is that the majority of
  the population is struggling for one thing or
  another and fighting it out.

  Great!
  Keep it up!"
