For me, the most important determining factors in selecting a new career would be, first, company history. You should know the company history to learn about their stability, their values, and their culture. Second would be job responsibilities. Of course, to be successful in your job, you need to find a position that aligns your strengths. Third, we can't deny it, would be the salary. As a breadwinner of my family, my compensation package should be able to meet my goal, my family's basic needs, and help plan in the future. Fourth would be, and the last thing would be, work-life balance. So you should know about the company's policies on vacation, sick days, and like this, offering work-from-home flexibility. So again, those are the factors, company history, job responsibilities, salaries, and work-life balance.
