8 個步驟找到夢想中的工作
接受與拒絕Offer
透過以上的薪水談判,兩邊給的Offer不會差太多,如果差很多,就很清楚該選哪邊了。雖然薪水不是選工作的唯一因素,但也可以看出公司對你的重視程度。
除了薪水外,還要考慮工作的環境、成長空間、公司福利、在職訓練,最重要的是家人的支持。感謝老婆的支持,願意放棄舒適的居住環境,搬到陌生的城市重新開始。
決定接受Offer後,就可以回信給主管,並開始洽談到職的時間。
接受Offer範本:
Hi, [Manager Name]
Yes, I accept the position!
Thank you for the offer. It is my honor to be a member of your team.
I will work hard and try my best to learn and get familiar with our business soon.
Thanks,
Michael
其他的Offer也要禮貌地回信拒絕,因為在同個領域總會有再見面的一天。
拒絕Offer範本:
Hi, [Manager Name]
Thank you so much for the offer. I so appreciate you taking the time to consider me and for answering so many of my questions about the university and role.
After careful consideration, I have decided to accept a position at another university.
It is been a pleasure getting to know you, and I hope that we cross paths in the future.
Thanks,
Michael
如何離職
找到新工作固然開心,但也要瀟灑地離職,以下是幾點離職的注意事項。
- 提早告知主管離職時間
每間公司規定不一樣,但一般是提前2周提出離職申請,在這段時間將工作交接給其他人。我用Email的方式遞辭呈,在信中註明離職的時間,以下是我使用的範本。
Dear [Manager Name],
Please accept this letter as notice of my resignation from my position as the [job title]. My last day of employment will be [the Last Day].
I received an offer to serve as [new job title] of another university, and after careful consideration, I realize that this opportunity is too exciting for me to decline.
It has been a pleasure working with you and your team over the last three years. I believe that the team will be getting better with your lead.
I would like to help with the transition of my duties so that systems continue to function smoothly after my departure. I am available to help recruit and train my replacement, and I will make certain that all reporting and scripts are updated before my last day of work. [Manager Name], thank you again for the opportunity to work for UMSL. I wish you and your team all the best and I look forward to staying in touch with you. You can email me anytime at [Email Address] or call me at [Cell Number].
Sincerely,
Michael
確定離職的時間後,就可以跟新工作主管確認到職的時間。我在週五離職,隔周一就開始上班,雖然這樣不會用到假期,但卻身心俱疲。建議給自己最少一周的時間調整,可以安排假期或是熟悉新環境,充分休息後再重新出發。
- 剩餘假期兌現
公司一般有3種假期,休假(Vacation)、病假(Sick)、個人假(Personal Day),只有休假(Vacation)的累積離職後能兌換成現金。所以平常可以先使用個人假、病假,休假等到接近上限再使用,這樣離職後至少可以再多拿一個半月的薪水。
- 退休金Roll over
很多公司幫員工存的退休金,要工作幾年後才會歸屬(Vested)於員工。例如我們公司規定要工作滿三年,離職後才能拿到退休金,如果還沒滿三年就離職,只能拿到自己存的部分,公司存的(Match)部分就拿不到。
離職後有幾個方式處理退休金:
- 直接領出: 如果你急需現金,可以直接領出來,但如果還沒到退休年齡,須繳交不少稅金與罰款。
- 放著不動: 如果覺得原本的理財公司不錯,也可以放著不動,但前公司不會再存錢進去。
- Rollover: 如果你不希望失去退休金的稅利且繼續存錢進去,可以將退休帳戶滾存 (Roll over) 到個人的IRA帳戶或是新公司的退休帳戶。這樣不但能避免罰款,還能繼續享受緩徵所得稅的利益。
- 與同事道別
在職場上,Networking非常重要,我的推薦信就是來自於以前的同事,幫助非常大,所以離職前跟同事互相留下聯絡方式或是加入LinkedIn。
我用個人的Email信箱告知同事離職的消息,以下是我使用的範本。
Dear [同事名字],
You may already have heard the news, but I wanted to take a moment to let you know that I am leaving my position here at UMSL.
I have enjoyed my tenure here and I appreciate having had the opportunity to work with you. I have loved working on [一起共事的項目] projects with you, and enjoying lunch with you on Friday. Thank you for the support, guidance, and encouragement you have provided me during my time at UMSL.
I would appreciate any continued advice you could provide as I start the next phase of my career. Please keep in touch. I can be reached at my personal email address (xxx@xxx.xxx) or via my cell phone – xxx-xxx-xxxx.
Thanks again for your support.
Best regards,
Michael
- 與主管面談
我在離開前跟主管預約了一個面談,分享在這工作幾年的回饋,也希望主管能給我個人一些建議。是我在這工作以來,收穫最多的一個面談。
因為即將要分道揚鑣,也不用太遮掩,說的都是真心話,但也不是抱怨。這面談的目標是,雙方都能真心地分享,幫助彼此在職場上更進步。
首先我先分享在這工作遇到的困難,如果是人的問題,我會指出事件,而不是人身攻擊,並提供解決的辦法。
接著請主管指出我的優缺點,並專注在缺點上。這是重點,把缺點記下來,想辦法改進,並且不帶到新的工作上。
最後請教主管,他能成功的因素是什麼? 如果時間能倒回到年輕時,會想做些什麼? 我們分享彼此的願景與計畫,並給予祝福後珍重道別。
“If you want to move to a new level in your life, you must break through your comfort zone and practice doing things that are not comfortable.”
– T. Harv Eker
朋友問我說: “你不是才剛買房子嗎? 地板不是才剛鋪好? 怎麼就要搬走了?” 我現在的生活很舒適,換工作可能又要回去住公寓了。但我想要有更好的生活,那就需要改變,因為外在的結果是反映你的內在,如果你的內在害怕改變,外在如何改變呢? 如果你不滿意現在的工作或是生活環境,那就從改變自己開始吧。你只要持續努力,當你準備好了,神就會把你擺在預備好的道路上。
