選擇最好的Offer

        在一個競爭如此激烈的就業(yè)市場下，拿到很多個offer聽起來像是一件好得令人難以置信的事。這樣的情況還會有什么問題呢？選擇一個報酬最多的，然后直接繼續(xù)干吧，這樣就對了嗎？錯！如果你不抽空去仔細(xì)權(quán)衡一下所有的offer，你可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)自己在不久的將來就不得不再次的尋找一份新的工作。

　　帕特從兩個月前開始找工作的，但是卻很少得到答復(fù)。他參加了一系列的面試--甚至是第二輪和第三輪的面試——但是就是一直沒有offer。就在這時，突然在一周內(nèi)，兩家公司同時給他發(fā)來了很好的offer。帕特很意外，危機(jī)暫時解除了。

　　他怎樣才可以做出一個正確的選擇呢？他需要一份工作以便開始償還一些拖欠的賬單，但是，他也在擔(dān)憂著經(jīng)濟(jì)的狀況。這些公司誰能夠在如今激烈的競爭中幸存呢？他仔細(xì)研究和了解了各個公司的背景，但他還是忽視了一些事情——一些在做決定前必須做的事情。

　　評估你的需求

　　帕特從一個做招聘工作的朋友那里征求意見。他們正在設(shè)計一種評估offer的方案。他們給了帕特一張電子表格，在表格中，頁面上方是各個公司的名稱，頁面下方的左邊是帕特的價值和需要。在每個公司名稱下面，他們?yōu)橐韵赂黜�，分別按1到10給出了一個分?jǐn)?shù)：

　　•安全性：帕特在過去五年內(nèi)已經(jīng)兩次被解雇了，他期待著能為一個公司長期的工作。

　　•平衡性：帕特個人目標(biāo)的重點之一就是他的家庭。 在他從事上一份工作時，他每周的工作時間超過60個小時。他不想再次的陷入那種瘋狂的工作節(jié)奏中去。

　　•工作成就感：帕特希望自己的工作能有意義，而且他希望工作能有所變化。

　　•工作場所：這是與工作的平衡性密切相關(guān)的。如果他每天不得不花費三到四個小時在坐車往返上，那么就意味著在這些時間內(nèi)他都無法和家人呆在一起。他也希望能在一周中有幾天可以遠(yuǎn)程辦公。

　　•薪水和利益：這點是非常重要的，但是并不是與另一種價值同樣重要。帕特想要得到符合自己價值的報酬，但他也愿意磋商來滿足一些他的其他方面的需求。

　　在計算各欄總和后，他們開始對照總分。表格的總分顯示：雖然有一家公司可以提供更多的錢，但是同時也必須承擔(dān)較高的風(fēng)險，而且長時間的遠(yuǎn)離家人，這些都是那點額外的金錢所不能補(bǔ)償?shù)�。這樣，帕特就可以很容易的看得出：什么才是影響他的決定的第一位要素，而且有了這個工具，他感到更有信心為自己和家人找出一個最佳方案。

　　在考慮何時接受一個offer的情況時，總有一些變量是不可預(yù)知的，但是利用這一分析法可以使做出的決定更加的客觀。做出了一個壞的決定可能會導(dǎo)致你生活十分悲慘而且也會感到非常的遺憾，但是你也不能離開，因為你才在那個職位上工作了幾個月。因此，最好可以對每一個offer都進(jìn)行評估，但是如果有不止一個offer可供選擇——那么評估就是一個十分重要的環(huán)節(jié)。

 

Select the Best Offer

In a tight job market, multiple offers sound too good to be true. So what's the problem? Choose the one that pays the most and move on, right? Wrong. If you don't take time to evaluate the offers, you could find yourself searching for a job again in no time.

Pat began his job search two months ago with minimum responses. He had interviews -- even second and third interviews -- but no offers. Then, all of a sudden, within one week, two companies called and made good offers. Pat was taken by surprise and caught off guard.

How does he go about choosing the right one? He needs to get back to work and start paying off some bills, but he is anxious about the state of the economy. Which of these companies is going to survive? He's done his research and knows the backgrounds of the companies, but there is something missing -- something he needs to do before he makes his decision.

Assess Your Wants and Needs

Pat seeks advice from a friend in the recruiting business. Together they lay out a strategy to evaluate the offers. They put together a spreadsheet with the company names across the top. Down the left side of the page they list Pat's values and needs. Under each company's name they assign a score from one to 10 for each of the following:

•Security: Pat has been laid off twice in the past five years and is looking for a home with a solid company.

•Balance: One of Pat's top personal values is his family. In his last job he worked more than 60 hours each week. He is not eager to get back into that work frenzy again.

•Job Satisfaction: Pat wants to feel his work means something and that he's contributing and making a difference.

•Location: This goes hand-in-hand with balance. If he has to spend three to four hours a day commuting, it will mean time spent away from his family. Telecommuting a couple of days a week may be a possibility.

•Salary and Benefits: Important, but not as important as the other values. He wants to be paid what he is worth, but would be willing to negotiate to get some of his other needs met.

After totaling the columns they compare total scores. The totals reveal that although one of the companies offers more money, the risks are higher and the time away from his family will not be worth the extra dollars. Pat can see how his priorities will affect his decision and feels more confident having a tool to work with to make the best decision for him and his family.

There are always variables that cannot be predicted when accepting an offer, but using an analytical approach can make the decision more objective. Making a bad decision can result in your being miserable and feeling unfulfilled, but unable to leave because you have only been in the job for a few months. It's always best to evaluate any offer, but if there is more than one offer to choose from -- it is essential.
