Q#2:Do you think importance of being nice

varies by industry or type of job?

Yes People who work in laboratories, factories or anywhere

that interaction with people isnt much needed unless

youre the head or the supervisor of that department.

Jobs that involves high discipline authoritarian and

more demanding to the public.

people who are working in service sectors, publicrelation, tourism, customer service or anything that

involves hospitality, being nice is very important in

order for the company to be more productive.

#3. How comfortable would you be working in a culture likethat of SuccessFactors, where a certain level of niceness

is part of the job description?

Working in a place like SuccessFactors will be achallenge because it would be likely hard to adapt thecompanys custom.If people treats you nice then it will be impossible thatyou will act hostile, so you will act like them.Youll be influenced by the other people working there.It would be a good place to work because of theenvironment that will be implemented in there.

People will be in there are nicer because a certain levelof niceness was included as a part of the jobdescription.people who will be hired in that company will be less toyell or be yelled.The work place will be filled with positive vibes whereas

employees will actually enjoy and be motivated to work.

I think it would be comfortable working

in this kind of company with this kind of

culture.

Question No. 4: Do you think being nice is the

same as the Big five trait of Agreeableness? If so,

do you think companies should screen out those

who score low on agreeableness?

Both are different

Nice people are lack of short temper,

make environment pleasent

Agreeable people are tolerant,

sensitive and trusting

For higher positions agreeablenesswould not work

Depends on the nature of the job
