Changing jobs can be exciting and scary at the same time. You find the perfect position to apply for, but you find yourself stepping back and wondering if this company is the right one to pursue. Many questions may swirl in your mind throughout the interviewing process. If they offer you a position, should you take it? Will it be a good fit? How do you know for sure that this will work out?

It is possible to find your perfect new workplace by making a list of items you believe will make your move the right one. For example, do you want opportunities to grow professionally at the continuing care retirement community you applied to? The best place for you to apply and accept a position from will check off many boxes on your list.  

4 Key Aspects to Look for in a New Company 

There is more to life than punching a time clock and receiving a paycheck. There are relationships to build and values to live by. Use these four points to start your list of requirements for your next ideal job:

1. The Company Culture Fits Your Personality: It is easier to go to work each day when you are heading to a culture that aligns with your personality. For example, if you enjoy a relaxed environment, you may not want to accept a position within an organization with strict policies and micromanaging tendencies. Instead, you may blossom within one that allows you to embrace who you are and challenges you to grow.
2. The Company Values Align with Yours: Consider those values you uphold personally, such as honesty, grace, honor, and integrity. Do they care for their clients, residents, and employees? Do they strive to protect the environment? Going to work each day will be much easier when you know the company’s values are held to a high standard.
3. The Team Members Enjoy Working There: You will spend almost one-third of your day with the same people. If they dislike working for the company, you may find their attitude wearing on you. Your day-to-day duties will be much more enjoyable when you work with people you like and with whom you can build personal relationships.
4. The Management Team Appreciate their Teams: Feeling appreciated is an enormous motivator for many people. We’re not talking about having lunch brought in daily. Instead, you receive positive feedback and support to grow as an employee and a person.
