For me, flexibility is one of the most crucial aspects when choosing a career. My ability to
reconcile my personal needs and professional obligations is enhanced by having a flexible
work schedule. It gives me the flexibility to follow my interests, spend time with my family,
look for myself, and engage in other activities outside of work. I appreciate autonomy and
work-life balance equally, thus this is essential to me. I want my job schedule to be set up so
that doesn't conflict with my obligations. That guarantees that my profession does not
supersede and supports my personal life, which adds to my general happiness and well-
being.
