An employer who can set clear expectations is the best kind of employer to have. You want to work for a company that can give you direction. When you have goals to work towards, you can measure your success and become a high performer.

Ask the interviewer about specific goals and targets. Avoid accepting a general answer. If an employer cannot precisely discuss employee objectives, this is an indicator that they are trying to find a warm body to put in a seat. This behavior is an indicator that you would not be joining a team of high performers.

Try to get examples of specific numbers, actions, and rewards used in the workplace. These could include daily targets, examples of fun in-office contests, and other ways they measure success and recognize accomplishments.
