Navigating Daily Meetings: What to Expect in a New Job

As I embark on the job application journey, a question has been steadily on my mind: how many of you in the industry engage in daily meetings with your teams or managers?

Having previously worked in a small office environment where meetings were virtually non-existent, I’ve grown accustomed to a different pace of collaboration. Now, I’m contemplating whether it’s possible to secure a position that involves fewer meetings—perhaps only two per week.

Daily meetings can serve various purposes: they foster communication, enhance accountability, and promote team cohesion. Yet, for those like myself who thrive in a more independent setting, the constant interruptions can feel overwhelming.

As I explore potential job openings, I would love to hear about your experiences. Do you find daily meetings beneficial, or do you prefer a structure with less frequent interactions? Your insights could greatly help me shape my expectations and approach as I transition into a new workplace culture.
