Why would anyone accept a job that’s not a good fit? Fear. If you lost your job suddenly, fear may propel you to accept whatever you can find. But a job that’s a good fit is life-changing, says Find Your Dream Job guest Kat Nelson Troyer. Kat suggests taking the time to clarify what you want from a job, what you can offer an employer, and where you want to go in your career. Kat also recommends developing a “board of advisors;” people who know you well and can encourage and help you along the way.
