first of all, it is not true that you can change as many jobs as possible... actually this would have a bad effect on you resume coz you will show that you are not a stable person and companies would not really be interested in hiring you any more... so you have to be cautious in regards to this.\n\ni would also that a job is not meant to be a joyful place to spend your time at! it is somewhere you earn a living from... therefore you have to figure out what a job should be offering to have you loyalty. is it the money that you need? or the rich experience? or maybe short working hours? prepare a list of the things you really need and DO NOT change your current job till you get a job offer that matches your requirements.\n\ngood luck\n\nHR Manager

Yes, it shows stability and committment. People who jump from job to job every two years say one thing to me. They are never happy or don't get along well with other people. Not a good work ethic. But longevity is always a plus. Just make sure the reason for leaving isn't because you wanted a change. List something like no more room for advancement or something like that.

Experts say following reasons are good enough to leave the job and take a plunge in the job market:\n1. High anxiety---job (boss, colleagues, company, work) is causing you high anxiety and you feel out of control\n2. It is beginning to look like you have been demoted without a change in title (called "marginalizing" or "sidelining" someone)\n\nNote: in these cases, try switching jobs internally before quitting\n\n3. Company is in trouble and is offering a package and threatening to pull it if you don't accept\n4. Company has suffered severe reputational damage and hanging on is only going to taint you, and may involve you in litigation\n5.You have an offer and it is near perfect (at least 8 of 10 things you want)

Dear, I, too, am in the same situation; but sometimes we have to make sacrifices to do what we have to do!  If you can't afford to quit your job, what other alternative do you have as far as living arrangements?  What ever you do don't quit school.  You are going to school for a reason.  I do believe that it is so that you won't have to work at "sucky jobs" for too much longer.  Just think "NO PAIN, NO GAIN"!!  This way you will enjoy your success even more.  You are a Survivor!!!!

Yours is a tough descision. I went through the same thing when I was in the service. I left as soon as I could and when I was offered a job in the government I ran ,lol. I have been working for myself pretty much since then. To be true to yourself and not conform more than your soul can take is what you have to find out. I wish you good luck and patience.

The fact that you posted this question means that you want to continue working. Have you discussed this with him? If you have, and he refuses to budge about letting you work, then you really need to question your relationship with him. I also have to wonder if he is pressuring you to give up your time with friends and family, too. Does he get upset when you are on the phone too long? Or irritated when it takes you too long at the store? Does he insist on going everywhere with you? All of these things are warning signs that he is controlling, and possesive. Be careful! They are also things that lead to abusive relationships. If he just simply wants you to give up your career, and won't budge about letting you do what you want, you need to ask yourself if you can live like that, or if it's time to move on and find someone who will encourage you to succeed.

It's all about patience and perspective.  Even if you can't get your dream job right now, think about steps you can take to better position yourself for it in the future.  It might take some hard work and a few years, but you can get what you want eventually if you work at it.

I've you haven't been able to get past the interview to an actual job offer, it may be that you lack both experience and the ability to sell yourself to prospective employers.  \n\nIf you are as hard working and intelligent as  you say you are, try applying at a temp staffing agency.  They can place you in a company without having to interview for a specific job and you can give them a first hand introduction to your hard work and intelligence.\n\nRemember, at 22, you are really just starting out in your career. Don't expect a high salary or an executive position for your first real job.  Be willing to start at the bottom and prove yourself so you can quickly work your way up the ladder.

How could it be more experience if the individual is not lasting long enough to face some of the challenges that the job may offer.\n\nToo many jobs may in fact appear as the individual is unstable, incapable of handling the job, cannot get along with others, or does not have an idea of what they really want.\n\nOn the other hand, a person staying with a job say, 3-5 years shows, dedication, loyalty, stability and the willpower to handle challenges and the ability to help an organization work out internal and external issues.

Maybe it is you...maybe you don't interview well or your resume is less them worthy. why don't you try working your way up, even the big CEO's started at the bottom. first try getting a job at a company you like at the bottom, then work your way up.

Somehow, people with a sense of loyalty have trouble changing jobs.  I am looking to quit a horrible job, but I am having pangs of guilt.  These people would fire me at the drop of a hat even though I have worked very hard for a few years,\n\nThink of what is best for you.  Nobody is irreplaceable and they will easily find someone else for your current position if you decide to move on.  You are not the first, nor will you be the last person to do what you are contemplating.  If it is better for you to make the move, don't lose the opportunity,  But be sure to secure the job before you let your current boss know what you are planning to do.

Just keep trying. Sometimes is just a numbers game. You can do everything right and they still don't pick you. Also, they could have chosen the other person even before you interviewed. I ran into this alot last time I was looking for work. Hang in there. Good luck!

Sometimes it takes time.  The best thing you can do is work in many different types of industries and jobs as well as volunteering, etc. until you find your fit.  Don't be afraid to leave a place to try something new and don't be afraid to take a second job volunteering or working in something completely different.\n\nThe key is fearless pursuit of new and different things until you find your place in the world.

It depends, why do you want to seek a new job?  \n\nIf you have a habit of switching jobs often (every few months) then you might just want see why that is?  Are you being too picky about the job? Or, do you not get along w/ people at your job?  If its something that you're doing, like being defensive or something like that, then try to change your behavior to see if that helps any. \n\nIf you want to change jobs because you don't like the environment and you don't see yourself learning anything or advancing anywere then I suggest you look for another job.  \n\nI would definitely keep the current job until you find something else.  And just remember, you will have to give a reason for why you left so try to make it a good one.

HA! How old are you again?! Honestly, I wouldn't discontinue job searching. File for unemployement if need be while in the meanwhile you can still search. Are there any talents/skills/trade that you have that can make you some extra change?? I agree with changing environments, too. Sometimes a change of venue & establishing a strong network can help you get a job. Don't forget tax time is right around the corner. Maybe someone can file you as a dependent--Or you can file? \n\nWhen job searching you can't be too pickey either when you don't have anything. Try temp agencies, networking, internet, word of mouths, etc. There's a lot you can do to find a job. Don't have too much pride where even working at fast food isn't enough. It's not cute or sexy being picky, broke, & homeless. I suggest finding something out there & save up. Good Luck!
