Questions to ask yourself BEFORE accepting a job

[@ht_university]

great insights on some of the important things you would be asking yourself before switching careers or making a next move. I like all the points, but one thing to add is the age factor also plays a big role in deciding on how you want to transition to the next level. Its easier to move around in your 20s or 30s, but tough in 40s - 50s because of share volume of career experience gained after graduation. In my opinion, industry do matter after you have gained significant experiences (10+ years), but that's just my opinion.

Unfortunately, changing companies is the fastest way to increase your pay. Typically, the top companies in each industry pay the most so if you aren't already working at one of the top companies in your sector, you should try to move into bigger and bigger companies over time.

@@mohibquadri4053 Depending on where you start your career, don't only focus on applying to the top companies. Usually they only hire from other top companies or ones that are slightly smaller than them. So you can try to keep joining bigger/growing companies every 2 years until you're on their radar. Or hope that a company you join becomes one of the top players in the market
