Put these points front and centre in your job search to help you find the right fit

Should your resume list your top three values, how you prefer to be led and what kind of workplaces turn you off?

That seems counter-productive, likely to make you seem self-centred and cost you the job. If you are simply trying to grab any position you can, it would not be wise. But if you’re looking for the right fit in a job, maybe it should be front and centre in your job search. When organizational psychologist André Martin interviewed a workplace cross-section from newbies to CEOs, he found such fit elusive – hard to find and retain over time. Yet, he feels it’s essential. “When right fit is there, the days feel easy, the work is more meaningful and our connection to our company grows exponentially,” he writes in Wrong Fit, Right Fit.

It’s hard to find because employer recruiting branding makes it almost impossible to assess how the company works day-to-day amid the fluff. And if you pick the wrong place and try to fit in, you will be trying to become something you aren’t.Now you are armed for the job search, to become interviewer as well as interviewee.
