Fearless Interviewing

Here’s how Tanya’s list looks when it’s finished.

Small Company Large Company

Recognition Great wealth

Variety Using my technical expertise

Independence Intellectual stimulation

Competition

Excitement

Challenge

Tanya might make the choice to go with the larger company
because it fulfills most of her values. A person with a different set
of values would have a completely different profile.
Let’s say we’re looking at the same companies but with a dif-
ferent person. Carlos is recovering from a heart attack, and his
doctors have told him he must slow down. Carlos’s top values are
as follows:

1. Minimum stress

2. Minimum stimulation
3. Short commute
4. Mastery

5. Independence
6. Spiritual fulfillment

7. Financial security
8. Social contact

9. Flextime
