Career Boundaries

It’s okay to have boundaries in your career search.


Otherwise you’ll jump at the first job offer or the highest bidder without ever considering:


✅ Culture

✅ Personality fit

✅ Chemistry with boss

✅ Actual travel

✅ Commute - traffic each way, when will I have to leave or get home

✅ Benefits - cell phone, vacation, possible insurance lapse

✅ Future opportunities

✅ Company values and history

✅ Compensation - are you settling

✅ Work hours

✅ Work Life Balance

✅ Professional development

✅ Management style

✅ Training

✅ Remote - how are you supported personally and technology



Identify your guardrails before leaping into a new job or you’ll soon be back in job seeker role.


Be clear in your expectations with your recruiter, who is your partner. Come clean on your needs with yourself and anyone else who is supporting your job search.
