A job offer can reveal a great deal about a prospective employer. It can convey the seriousness of the employer; a candidate’s value to the company and most importantly, the very decision of taking up the offer. It is usually based upon a number of factors out of which only some are flexible. While a factor may be of prime importance to one candidate, it may not be of much significance to another. Here are a few key points to make note of before taking (or turning down) a job offer:

Nobody can question the importance of money in life and thus it is an important decision making criteria. A candidate must be sure to ask about the timing of the salary, salary reviews and performance appraisals. Generally, performance reviews are conducted once every year or once every six months, depending on the company policy.

3. Bonuses
Bonuses can add a considerable amount to the total pay package. It depends upon the company’s relative profit or it can be offered during performance appraisals.

4. Benefits
Benefits or perks add to the base pay of an employee. Generally, companies offer health and dental insurance through the respective providers. One should find out the facilities and the coverage extended by these providers. Some companies also offer perks or added benefits to some senior executives and managers of the company, including personal perk such as daycare on site, company car, etc. Not all companies offer such perks nor are all employees are entitled to them.

5. Job Location
