You are ready to leave your job and move on to something different. There are many reasons people leave their current jobs. But, if asked in an interview why you are looking elsewhere, should you really be honest? The answer is yes, but to frame the answer without negativity or bitterness. In the next few posts, we will help you with answers to “Why are you leaving your current job?” Today’s reason for leaving your job is you want more money. Who doesn’t?

So, how should you answer the question, “Why are you leaving your current job?” According to themuse.com, you want your answer to be positive and company enriching. Explain that you had the opportunity to develop and grow your skills in your current job, but now you are ready to join a company that will value your skills and allows you to use your skills fully.

STAY POSITIVE AND MOTIVATED! For those who are in the path of getting new job! “If you don't pass the job interview, it’s not you're bad. It’s because the company is looking for the suitable person, not the best one!” The outcome of a job interview, whether positive or negative, is a nuanced reflection of multiple variables rather than a simple measure of individual worth. Failing to secure a position doesn't necessarily imply inadequacy; instead, it may signify that another candidate possessed a specific set of skills or experiences more closely aligned with the employer's current needs. The competitive nature of the job market often means that multiple qualified individuals vie for the same opportunity. Recognizing this reality can be empowering, encouraging individuals to view rejections as opportunities for growth and self-improvement rather than as reflections of personal shortcomings. Embracing the mindset that each interview is a learning experience enables individuals to refine the approach, enhance the skills, and ultimately increase the chance of success in future endeavors. Rejection is not a verdict on personal worth but a part of the professional journey empowers individuals to persist, adapt, and ultimately flourish in the career. Success is a long-journey, not a destination. So, stay focused and do not give up! - - - To increase your chances of getting a job soon, please send your CV to email taivbp@jobtest.vn, you will be recommended a suitable job list.

It's really easy to get stuck in your job search. 🤕 Here are 5 game-changing tips that will help you get unstuck in your job search that are actually doable & that you can do right now: 🔍Reach out to past colleagues & employers. It can be daunting, I promise but it will be very useful in the long run. Ask them what you did well. Write down what they say & look for patterns - these are the things that will help you stand out in interviews & applications! ✍🏻Journal about three of your most important projects in your career. Look for common themes, look for any similarities. In this, your passions, your strengths & your skills are going to become clearer. You can take what you’ve written & repurpose it for LinkedIn/your portfolio or use it to gain clarity about what role you’d like or use it for interviews/applications. 📰Find Job openings that look interesting to you and read the descriptions. You can look at the similarities between what your past roles, & what the job role entails. & you can do this in several positions. This will help you narrow your search & help you find your perfect role. You will begin to see similarities & then be able to hone in your search, your CV and your applications to fit these roles. 💬Tell people that you are looking for new opportunities and ask for advice; BUT take only the advice that you like. Talking to other people is a great way to get ideas, think aloud & gather information. Many opinions will differ - we all have different lived experiences so follow the advice that best aligns with you! 📲Take all phone screenings that are offered to you! If nothing else, it's free practice. The more you talk to recruiters, the more confident you will become talking about you, your experience & your skills. Plus, you will get to know recruiters who one day might get you that interview for your dream role. Or they might have other openings. The possibilities are endless.⠀⠀ What do you think? Share below something that you do when job searching that you swear by! 💥 Don’t forget to save these or share it if you find it useful 💙 . . #jobsearch #careergoals #careergrowth #careerdevelopment #interview #careercoach #career

The most significant challenge my clients, who earn above 100K, face is finding suitable positions in the job market. Beyond a certain level, they also struggle with inner conflicts related to compromises, particularly those who have devoted themselves to corporate careers for more than a decade. They often feel insecure about the transferability of their skills and their true worth. Additionally, they struggle with the application process. Therefore, my advice is this: Even if you already have a great job, continue to engage in the job market, apply for positions, attend interviews, and remain open and flexible in your approach. This proactive attitude will help you remain competitive and successful. #itsyourcareer #careeradvice #jobmarket

Helping women find alignment with purpose while building dream careers on their terms | Career Coach | Licensed HR Professional | Ex Recruiter of 10+ Years | Founder of Your Next Career with Linda
Unpopular opinion: Don’t stop interviewing even if you already secured a job offer. Now before you come at me and tell me that it would be wasting everyone’s time, listen to what I have to say first. Although you’ve secured a job offer but still have a few more interviews lined up with potential employers, don’t feel that you have to cancel them all just yet I would still recommend you still attend those scheduled interviews to see what else they can offer that might be a better fit than the one you have already accepted. Think of it this way. Employers can easily withdraw anyone’s job offer if they found a more suitable and stronger candidate, so why can’t you do the same and continue “shopping” around? I’ve witnessed throughout my HR career where employers have held job offers back, simply because they can pick and choose who they want on their team. At the same time (and I still advise my clients to this very day), an interview is like a type of art. It will ONLY get better with practice. …and here’s my last thought. You don’t have to worry about attending more interviews (even if you have already accepted an offer) because it’s not all said and done until you are in that seat and working away. So, the next time you are actively interviewing, continue to do so even if you have already secured a job offer.

Some excellent points here, from Helena Rattova!
Should you take a “bridge job”? How to explain it in future interviews? I’ve had the most wonderful discussion with Jennifer B. - a Careers professional based in North America, and here’s what I’ve learnt: 1. Your priority is your physical and psychological safety and integrity. Food must be put on the table, bills must be paid, and this is more important than “how it'll look on your CV”. 2. A “step back” is not a setback. It is in fact what most successful people and businesses do to stay resilient – they know it is a temporary manoeuvre to stay in the game long-term. Taking a bridge job, a pay cut or a job outside your field is a pragmatic solution to take care of what you need, to then go after what you want. 3. You’re not a job title – you’re a person with skills that you leverage and get paid for. Use them in any way you like. 4. Being employed (in any field), takes you away from a place of desperation and more onto a place of choice, and this will empower your job search. 5. If the reluctance to take a bridge role or a job outside of your field is because you’re unsure about how to explain this to a next employer, fear no more – you simply tell them the truth: “I took a role as X as they were hiring immediately and I enjoy/am good at Y, and although is very different from what I typically do, I learnt a lot about Z”. You can even ask the interviewer: ‘have you ever made a move like this yourself?’ 6. You capitalize on your skills while looking for a full-time role, mostly because of what that does to your self-esteem. To job hunt full-time can be mentally draining and deflating, and having something else to dedicate your energy and attention to might do you some good. In sum, we’re all in for getting paid for anything we can do without seeing it as a setback or worrying it’ll make a career look ‘squiggly’. We also think that there is no such thing as ‘squiggly’ anymore, as things have changed dramatically over the last 4-5 years. We keep learning… and we keep at it 👊
