Career compatibility is defined as shared values and mutual support around work, time availability, lifestyle, ambition, and income.
According to Tawkify's The Career Chemistry Report, based on a survey of 1,000 American respondents, 33% (or 1 in 3 people) said they would end a relationship because of career incompatibility.
As a matchmaker, this may be concerning. However, it's important to understand the reasoning behind this. These people are looking for steadiness, shared values, and enough time and emotional space to actually enjoy being in a relationship.
This is why the matching process is so important. By taking the time to fully understand your client, which includes looking at their lifestyle and goals, you can turn a good match on paper into a successful one in real life.
So when matching your client, don't overlook career compatibility. It may be one of the most important factors in creating a match that truly lasts. ✨
