The company visit is a time not only for your potential employer to get a better look at you, but also for you to gather information about the company. Although your preparation will allow you to make the best impression possible, you also want to prepare yourself to look for things in determining how satisfied you would be upon accepting an offer. Below are some tips in evaluating your office visits:
- Look at the human interaction element in the work environment--Is the camaraderie good? Do people seem to be working as a team?
- Evaluate the overall attitude of the employees in the office--Are the people happy? Tense? Overworked?
- Look for enthusiasm in the workplace--Are the employees genuinely excited about their company and what it represents?
- Assess the general organizational culture and comfort level--Do you feel comfortable with your surroundings? Is it a culture you respect?
