There are so many reasons to regularly change jobs: 1. A raise at a new job is almost always going to absolutely crush a raise at your current job. 2. It expands your network. 3. The change of scenery will make you more motivated and productive. 4. Shopping around while you already have a job gives you peace of mind just in case your current job goes south. It gives you leverage to be picky and CHOOSE your next job rather than SETTLE for one. 5. Keeps your interview skills sharp. If you are really worried about looking like a job hopper on your resume, remember that your resume does NOT have to include every job you've been at. On the flipside, if you are at a job where you are happy and it allows you to live comfortably, be very careful when picking your next job. Imo, I'd rather be happy making $75k than depressed making $100k.

Had an interview for a management position weeks ago. The interviewer has been with the company 10+ years and that’s her 2nd job in her career life. I’m not a job hopper, 3-4 years/change. She obviously has big concern for how long I could stay there. All in all, if a company has good culture and the boss gives you respect and appreciation plus the $ is fair, who would leave 😅

This is a surprisingly good answer. Very hard hitting and truthful. My only criticism is that it doesn't hit hard enough. . It's perfectly okay to jump ship after 3 days. You're speaking in this video about "ceo level" positions, but the vast majority of the country is at cashier level. People at such positions are very often harshly abused and mistreated. You *never* have to stay. This idea of "you can't hold a job" is a thing of the past. The company can't hold their employees.

Besides: at the interview we had so fun, we laughed and talked so much that time was flying. My boss to be also phoned me afterwards and asked more questions. Anyway, I said that I cannot start right away. I have some works to be finnished, I do not want to leave my clients in trouble. (I do not care so much about my present boss or the office, but I care about my clients). So I start in my new after three months. 😊

I have a question about a stance I have recently taken relating to employment. I had a long-term position in administration with a company that I recently left. I had been looking for a raise over 3 previous years. Took a new opportunity to take on a similar role with more responsibility and the raise I was looking for. I've been working in the new position 6 months. My previous employer just reached out, asking for me to apply for a senior administrative position that just opened that would come with a significant pay raise. My stance is to stay with new employer because I've committed to projects, and I don't want to leave them high and dry. If I were a year or more into the new job, it would be something I would be interested in. The difficulty is that in my line of work and in my area, these opportunities do not come up often and tend not to have turnover. I would need to stay with my new employer 15 years to make what my old employer is offering in new opportunity. I want to stay with my new employer, but it's hard to turn away from such a life changing opportunity. Thoughts?

Can you please go into depth about a dry promotion? For example, in my case the past 11 months I’ve undertaken additional responsibilities as a colleague’s position wasn’t backfilled who was above me. I haven’t received any additional compensation but have received positive feedback on performance reviews. It almost feels like I’m doing 1.5x roles or more but not being compensated appropriately, are there benefits to a “dry promotion”? Thanks as always for your knowledge and coaching!

100% agree with this assessment! The trajectory is important - it was and still is the main reason for me to switch companies and jobs if I felt I was venturing off my desired trajectory and no longer growing where I wanted to go. Better to stop, re-orient and even start in a new area to learn more. The latter will take more time and often leads to a slower career path, but I always found it more enjoyable, plus I benefitted from my ability to solve problems by having experience in other areas. It is also beneficial to think what is a realistic and enjoyable(!) career path - not everybody needs or wants to become VP or CEO.

Hey Andy ! Not sure if my previous comment got deleted. But , I have a particular situation where during early years of my career I had to change companies as I got laid off twice during first 10 years because of which I had to take short term employments while I looked for better fit. I changed my industry 3 years back and have been doing great. However as I aspire to advance into leadership roles, I get a pushback for not having much experience with my current industry. Should I switch to a company to get a leadership role or should I spend more time moving laterally and work on expanding my knowledge and build a tenure.

Amazing advice. I invested a lot of time interviewing in a company where I got an offer but not according to my expectations. Eventually I had to throw the ball in the court of the HR but she was very problematic. Finally she agreed to a particular index but the contract that she sent me had the same salary which is contradictory to the company's payscale. I didn't accept it and asked her if this was right as per the company's payscale I'd sign. She took the contract out. It was so frustrating.

@@S-nyc They are but they can be misread. I asked one of the interviewers what he finds most enjoyable about the job. He said what he checks/reads is pretty much error free. I thought, that means the copy would be well written. No. It's error free when he gets it - not when I get it. Terrible misinterpreted misrepresentation of the job. And anything that gets through is my fault, of course. The psychology involved in that is he doesn't care how stressful it is for those beneath him or around him. I've since learnt only one or two out of 50 care in a normal, decent way. And that superficially friendly but wholly unhelpful, and unwilling to help even if they can, is the order of the day.

Hi Andy, I’m a Senior Loan Processor with 20+ yrs experience. Got laid off 3/23, got a 3 month temp job at local credit union as a Senior Processor. The person that was there, left. I’m the 3rd temp they have hired looking for the right fit. The temp contract is up in 2 weeks and I need this paycheck and really hope they offer me the position as a permanent employee. I am trying to make the person upstream and downstream from me, love me, also my boss and co workers. I am humble about my level of experience, I have a positive attitude and happy to learn whatever they offer to teach. My question is, what else can I do to convince them to hire me permanently? Thank you!

Except employers will not train you and instead hire someone to do the job you already have expertise in from a previous employer as they do not want to coach or train. Leaving is the only way to get around this nonsense as your skills rot with out of date technology or skills.
