In today’s employment environment it is more difficult than ever to find companies that not only pay well but also have the stability and staying power to build a long term career. In recent years we have seen the fall of many major corporations and one must carefully choose a position with a positive future. Jobseekers are challenged with many questions during their analysis of potential employers. Will this company be around in 5 years? Or even 2 years? Does this company have good benefits? Are others in this position paid the same way I will be? What is the employee turn over like? Is this a strong product or service? These are questions that everyone wants to ask during an interview but not always can. Obviously, they can damage your chances of getting hired because they may give a negative impression to the hiring manager. You must be sure to seem positive and driven even if you have a cautious mentality when interviewing.
The internet is giving employees and job seekers the ability to voice their opinion about their current and previous employment experiences. This is a tremendous resource that gives employees more leverage over companies that may have unethical business practices or substandard employee conditions while providing a well needed check and balance in the hiring and recruiting process. It is standard procedure for companies to do a reference check on candidates to verify employment history and experience. Candidates should also audit companies before they accept a job. The truth is that headhunters, placement agencies, and hiring companies don’t always have the best interests of the job seeker in mind.
