This is an often-neglected step in landing your next job. Relying upon a friend or recruiter’s pitch is not enough. It is important to dig up a lot of employment information on the industry, the company and your next boss. Use the Internet, a local library and D&B Reports. This can take a lot of time, but failure to do so can be disastrous.
It is better to uncover a weak company before you join than six months after starting work. So remember to thoroughly research your next employer.
