Are you planning for Job Change?

5 things to remember while you are planning for a job change
1. Reason for Change- Evaluate your decision
Quitting a job on grounds of conflict with colleagues or lack of job satisfaction are not the best reasons. Try to first resolve these with some counselling or talking to your supervisor.
If you have a clear-cut reason for switching career, then you should definitely abide by it and make it the right decision.
2. Pay vs Experience-
Switching jobs only on the basis of better compensation is not enough, if the learnings are slim. In the long run, if the value of experience and knowledge gained diminishes, it could hamper your major career progression.
3. Terms of Employment-
Gauge the difference between the current salary package and the one you will get in the new company. Understand the expectation from the new organization in terms of work thoroughly before taking up the job.
4. Scope of Growth-
When the work becomes monotonous and there is little or no scope of growth, then it is better to move out. Even if the company tries to retain you with good salary hike, it should not stop your decision.
5. Networking-
Leverage your professional network and get in touch with people from the same field as they will give you the right direction in terms of references, vacancies and requirements. Maintain a cordial relationship with your current colleagues as you never know who will become a savior in times of need.
Share your thoughts in comments, if you agree or any additional points to consider.
