The
percentage of employees who are not happy in their current job is astronomical.
Sometimes the dissatisfaction can be fixed with a change in perspective, but in
some cases where there is poor management or a lack of passion for the type of
work being done, an entire job switch is necessary. Switching jobs and
conducting a job search
in Tualatin can be a hassle and can come with many complications, but
the best way to avoid that is by putting a thorough job-switch plan into place.
Understand
Why You Want to Quit
Tapping into
your mind and figuring out why you are not happy at your current job is an
important step in planning your job switch. Understanding why you want to quit
is not a step of deciding whether you should switch, but rather an analysis of
the decision you’ve already made. Sometimes we have emotions and opinions about
things, but we do not take the time to truly think about why those emotions and
opinions are in place. Understanding why you feel the way you do about your
current job will help you avoid ending up in another job you dislike. Making a
pro and con list regarding your current job is a way for you to discover what
exactly it is that you want in a new job.
Find a
New Job First
Don’t get so
caught up in the relief of quitting a bad job that you forget about your
post-quitting game plan. It is wise to find a new job before you leave your
current one. Studies show that a person who is currently employed has a higher
chance of getting considered and hired for a job than a person who is currently
unemployed. Therefore, you might as well reap the benefits of being currently
employed. Even if that means you need to stay at your current job a little longer,
it is usually worth it.
The Exit Date
Based on the
first two steps of creating a job switch plan, you cannot just get up one day
and quit your job. So, when should you quit? The best thing to do is to plan
your quitting day. If you do not have a concrete date set in your mind and on
your calendar, you may end up staying at your current job longer than you want
to and should. Tualatin
employment services explain that having an exit date will also give you a
solid day to look forward to as well as a solid deadline for being 100%
prepared to leave your job.
If you need
to quit your job, don’t wait! Begin planning your job switch right away. Don’t
stay at an unsatisfactory job for longer than you have to!
