Google each company to find more relevant information on them.
When you Google, you may even learn about the CEO of the company. If you find videos of the CEO, don’t hesitate to watch them to learn more about your future boss. A little internet stalking never hurt anyone! Be aware that no company is perfect and that all companies have problems. That’s okay as the most important thing to learn is how businesses deal with their problems. Are they really good at problem solving?

Use LinkedIn.
Look up the company on LinkedIn and see the different types of content that they are posting. Later on in this program, you’ll learn how to connect with employees because we want you to reach out to real live people (unless you’re applying to be a mortician).
It is critical to do the research because by doing so, you may change your mind about a certain company. A company may not be a good fit for you and that’s okay! Don’t ever feel locked
into one company just because someone recommended it to you. If no one was allowed to change their mind then we would all still be sucking our thumbs and screaming ‘NO’ at everything.

Choosing your company is a lot like choosing a partner to spend your life with. Your job will help you buy a house, surprise you every day, may remember your birthday, and probably cheat on you with your tennis instructor. You can
avoid negative work environments in the same way you can avoid a costly divorce: by choosing a partner that’s best for you (although a divorce may be easier to get than a job these days).
