Decide if the job is right for you

Importance of job satisfaction and why does it matter?

· You are compensated well

The most important point is compensation. Are you paid well? Is your salary according to your post and according to current rate? If you are satisfied with your payments and it is enough for you to take care of your needs then the place might be right for you.

· You are offered opportunities to grow

See that your job provides you with the opportunity to grow, they involve you in a big project. They give you new challenges and also value your work. There’s no point in staying at the same place where you were a few years go. You must get promotions and you must get opportunities to learn new things and gain experience. So make sure that your job gives you a chance to grow.

· Work-life balance is maintained

You work hard, you earn money only to lead a good life. If your job doesn’t leave you with enough time to enjoy and live life. It makes no sense in doing such jobs. Your work-life balance should be maintained no matter what. If you enough money but no time to spend it, then what is the use of money and all the hard work.

· Great corporate culture

While looking for the right job also research about their working culture. What corporate values and culture they follow? Are they according to your personal values and your expectations? It is necessary for you to have a proper corporate culture at your workplace to be satisfied and work peacefully. See whether the company has a grievance committee or not. Such things you won’t notice in the beginning but later on they matter a lot.

· Supportive co-workers

Another important deciding factor is co-workers or colleagues. It is vital to have supportive and empathic co-workers because you are going to spend 8-9 hours a day with them. Having supportive colleagues can help you a lot to keep your self-esteem high and not feeling lonely. Great colleagues will make sure you have fun while working.
