I remember when I bought my dream car. Seriously. It was amazing. I was so happy and proud of myself. It’s what I always wanted, at least for the most part. I am more of a two-seater, but as a new-enough mom, that wasn’t going to fly.

Oddly enough, this experience came on the heels of me quitting my job at a well-regarded company. I left because I was moving. (And I do love moving. I’ve moved more than 7,500 miles with my husband in my adult life. I like to see new things. One of our moves took us back to Columbus, Ohio. From Seattle. You heard that right. I moved from Seattle to Columbus. Judge away.) To move with relative ease, you need to find a job in the new city. 

And that is how my perfect candidate experience started. 

I started my search by researching best places to work in my new location, and a specific employer kept coming up. So I went to its careers website. It was simple, content-rich, and easy to navigate. I also reached out to people on LinkedIn and talked to them about the company and what it was like to work there.
