Tips For Handling A Job Offer Evaluation Effectively

By Sharon Hamilton


It is exciting when other companies in your field begin to notice your capability and make advances. It may come immediately you get a new position of years into your contract. It may also come from entities you never thought would hunt for you. The most prudent thing to do is conduct a thorough job offer evaluation. It helps you avoid mistakes that will be regrettable in future. What should you consider?

Conduct a thorough research of your potential employer to give you an idea of where you are going. Before employers make offers to potential employees, they thoroughly research on their skills, current position, salary and even performance. The research should focus on work environment, compensation, work ethics, culture and treatment of employees. By the time you become an employee who can be hired and fired at will, you should do it out of full knowledge.

Salary and wages are important considerations for any employee. You will be motivated to work if your daily engagement pays your bills. The salaries and entitlements should be within industry standards. They should also afford you a lifestyle that is within the scale of a person in the position you are being offered. After expenditure, your financial position should be better than your previous one. Consider the cost of living if you are to move to a new location.

What other benefits are on offer in the new position? Are the leave offers reasonable, will you be provided with a better health insurance cover, are there stocks that come with your position, what about pension, performance bonuses, and such other attractive perks. All these benefits should be added and compared to what you are enjoying or are slated to receive in future.

Each position comes with a particular level of commitment demanded. You might be required to work overtime, night shift, travel a lot and even be engaged during weekends. Such commitments could affect your relationships, family and even social life. The company should make necessary compensation for such inconvenience.

How will the position affect your career prospects? The perks may be attractive for now but hinder your future growth. It could be a complete shift in the industry where you work or are skilled. This may disrupt your progress by making you a misfit in another industry. Any move you make should only be to your favor.

Have the new potential employer assigned you the value you deserve? The perk that will be offered determines this. For instance, you may get a lot of money but have no freedom to perform your duties. You might be denied an opportunity towards self-actualization. Consider the long term value in terms of responsibilities assigned and who you report to.

What terms have been offered for your engagement and sacking? Remember that moving to another company is always an inconvenience. It might require you to abandon friends and social life that you have grown used to. The new company must be ready to compensate for such inconvenience and also not endanger your welfare by providing reasonable exit terms.
