Do you consider company culture during your job search?  A positive company culture can make a huge difference in how much you love your work.
It can mean the difference between dreading going to work each day, or absolutely loving your job.
But it doesn't just happen by chance. Assessing company culture during your job search takes extra work.
But it can pay off by helping you choose to join a company that aligns with your goals and values. Which can mean greater career satisfaction.
You can certainly do this research once you've applied for a job at a company.
But you don't have to wait until you've seen a job posting. You can create a list of target companies you'd love to work for. By doing so you can put more energy during your job search toward those companies.
And you'll more likely find an amazing job in a positive company culture where you can thrive and grow for many years.
