It’s not easy changing jobs: not so much because of the job you’re leaving
or the one you’re going to, but mostly because of the people. Good or bad, you
were familiar with the ones you’ve been with: but the people at the company
you’re headed towards are mostly unknown. If you’re trying to decide whether to
make a change, ask the recruiter or your potential boss what the employees there
are like, how they work together, what type of programs the company has to
foster work relationships, and how they’ve acclimated new employees in the
past. And if you’re the one making the hiring decision, think about how the new
employee might fit in and what you’ll need to do to make the transition and
acclimation smooth and efficient. Change takes time, patience, clear thinking
and communications, and a commitment by you to getting it right today.
