The secret to finding your ideal workplace

What's the most important thing to look for when applying for a new job? Entrepreneur Marion Campan advocates for a focus on company culture above all else. She offers practical strategies for evaluating companies before accepting a new position — including how to ask the right questions about values, feedback and expectations — to help job seekers find positions where they can thrive.

Choosing a new job based solely on salary or prestige can lead to regret and disengagement. Only 17 percent of employees in East Asia feel engaged at work, with many quietly quitting due to poor cultural fit. By observing the hiring process and asking targeted questions about promotion, values, and feedback, job seekers can uncover whether a workplace will truly help them thrive. Defining personal expectations for work is key to finding an environment that brings out the best in each person.
