大学生就业指南(6/7)

No one wants to get stuck in a dead-end job.

So ask your interviewer the possibility of moving up within the company

and what it'll take for you to get a promotion.

Find out if one job may equip you better for advancement than another.

For example,

are there training programs,

mentor relationships

or workplace education opportunities

that'll allow you to sharpen your skills

and make important contacts?

These will help make you a more valuable asset to the company,

or increase your hirability elsewhere

when you are ready to move on and move up.

Four, work environment.

There are 168 hours in a week.

If you spend 40 of those at work,

it means you'll pass one-quarter of your week there.

You better make sure you like the place

and that you fit in.

This reaches beyond the dress code

and whether you get an office or a cubicle.

Consider the company's size and culture,

say,

is it fast-paced or laid back,

hierarchal or more democratic.

Do the company's values match yours?

Is it family-friendly?

Would you get along with your co-workers?
