I got an opportunity to share my thoughts on an article about "Unlocking Your Path: A Comprehensive Guide on Choosing Career by Personality Type", thanks to Icy Tales and Featured !

“Stay in a job for at least two years.” “Never leave a job until you have your next one lined up.” Everyone from your mother to your mentor has advice about the best way to switch jobs. But how can you know whom to trust? Especially since what was true in the job market 20 years ago — is not necessarily gospel now. And the market is constantly changing. Let’s break the biggest myths around these for the best outcomes: 1. “Never tell your boss that you’re looking for another position.” Talk to them about it once & observe their reaction to it. Now companies keep the doors open in case you want to return & They make sure you leave on a positive note. 2. “Stay at a job for at least a year or two — moving around too much looks bad on a resume.” This is no longer true. Most employees leave their jobs within their 1st, 2nd, or 3rd anniversary. If you don’t feel like it’s adding to your growth or creativity, Changing gears is a need. 3. “Don’t quit your job before allowing your current employer to make a counteroffer.” It shouldn’t change your decision because: • There was a reason you started looking for another job. • Even if you stay, most likely you’ll start your next job search within the next 90 days. 4. Never make a lateral move — a new job is your only chance of making a big leap in title and compensation. “If you are going for title and compensation, think again!” More money and a better title rarely are what make you happy in a job. Instead, look for autonomy, mastery, and purpose. 5. “You should always be looking for your next job.” This is no longer true. If you are doing a truly fulfilling job, you shouldn’t ideally be looking for a different one. P.S. What’s a big Corporate myth you know?

Best Career Tips‼️

REAL TALK. Should staying loyal to your employer cost you $$ ... and perhaps more? Of course not! Back in the day, it was frowned down to those who make frequent career changes and even till today, there is still that stigma that “job hoppers” are unreliable and not trustworthy. I can tell you from my own career path, I have made TONs of moves that have drastically advanced my career… and ironically, I worked in HR! Especially nowadays with things getting insanely expensive, there is still a huge gap between what people are earning versus the actual living standards. So, there is more of the motivation as to why people are making the move they are today. People are NOT paid enough. … and they should NOT be punished for having to make the right choice for their life and career. Simple as that. But I can tell you that had I stayed with any employer more than 5 years, I can guarantee that my salary would NOT be as high compared to the moves that I made throughout my career. So why are we being punished for staying loyal? Now just so we are clear, the moves you make throughout your career NEEDS TO MAKE SENSE. That’s where your storytelling skills come in. Don’t be afraid to illustrate it to your potential employers. So the next time you are ready to make a career, focus on your own goals. Determine what are your main priorities when it comes to your career (ie. title change, increase in salary, job enrichment, flexibility etc.) as this will help determine if the move makes sense for you. Have you been in a situation where you had wished you made a move earlier in your career? Or have you made a move that you regretted and wished you hadn’t? 👇 --- ☞ Check out my new FREE 5-day Career Clarity Challenge.
