Here at JobDig, we love to hire recent college graduates.  We believe that our company culture fits exactly what a new graduate is looking for in a first job.  Here is why:

1.  We train on a daily basis and use the latest training techniques.  More than that, our sales leader and trainer has been doing it for 30+ years!!!  He knows his stuff.  Make sure the leaders at your new company can teach you.

2.  We are fair, sincere and transparent.  Luckily, we are still a small company, under 100 people, but what a great question to ask of any employer.  Do you consider your practices to be fair to all employees?—See how they answer THAT one.  We think it is important to make big decisions in front of all workers…we are not ashamed of anything we do.  If we felt we had to hide things from our company and workers, something bigger is wrong.

3.  Everyone understands the business model.  Some first jobs are not like that.  Can you tell your mom and dad how the business makes money in a specific, clear way?  Business is all about serving customers…make sure you can articulate how your prospective business does it.  If you can’t say it easily, it more than likely is NOT you…but them.

4.  We are young, fast, quick and we make mistakes.  Hopefully, we learn from them.  We do not shoot either messengers or people who make mistakes.

5.  We respect each other and it shows, even to the candidates who walk through our office.   We are playful, but respectful.  And safe.

But that’s just me.
