Understanding Personal Values

Clarity on personal values is crucial for job seekers to find a company that aligns with their desired work culture. Individuals often have varying definitions of what constitutes a 'great culture', which can include aspects like parental leave policies or social events. Job seekers are encouraged to reflect on their individual priorities and strengths by using tools such as the High Five Test, which helps to identify personal strengths that can influence their work preferences. By defining their values and what they seek in a work environment, candidates can make more informed decisions during their job search.
