5. Can You Get Along With Your Potential Coworkers?



Remember coworkers can make or break your career. Hence it is very essential to evaluate your potential colleagues before accepting a job. One easy way to do this is by evaluating the potential coworker during the interview process, which helps you to determine whether you can get along with them day in and day out. It is advisable to be very careful and trust your gut feeling while evaluating your potential coworker, as most of the time they put their best foot forward, and tend to be as friendly and pleasant as possible during the interview process. If you feel that they are being overly nice or faking, better opt for a different job. If you sense genuine compassion and care, you have found your second home.

6. Does The Job Provide You The Required Time To Have A Life?



Work should always revolve around your life and not the other way around. Life is too short to be completely consumed by work, and it is a sin not getting out and having fun with your loved ones. Hence, think twice before accepting a job that requires long working hours, no flexibility and work during holidays. Always try to find a job that allows you to live life to the fullest, without being weighed out by work responsibilities.
