How long should I stay in my current job?
It is a question asked by most (if not all) of us at some point in our careers. However, the answer is not as common and varies widely across industries, positions and individuals. No matter how long you may have been at a particular job, if it is no longer challenging, rewarding and if it doesn’t provide opportunities for growth, learning and advancement, you should consider looking elsewhere.
When it comes to positions which satisfy the above conditions, one must look at other factors, their age, expected time until retirement and their career goals.
Taking all of that into consideration, what have you found to be that optimal time frame to begin searching for new opportunities?
