When should you change jobs with a mediocre CV?
I don't want to go into details, but when I started my job, it became clear to me pretty quickly that I didn't want to stay with the company for the rest of my life.
However, I don't want HR people to get the impression that I'm giving up too quickly and changing jobs too quickly. What do you think: At what point would most HR employees not interpret a job change as a negative?
After 6 months, 1 year, 1.5 years?
Hmm a resume should not have time gaps and let a “red thread” be recognized.
If you only changed the subject, it shouldn’t be a problem first.
During the CV, you can also describe non-relevant stations superficially. If you are a little younger, for example, under 30, you can explain two short-term stations plausible, since after studying you are still in the founding phase and in the meantime it has become normal with this age group to have several stations in the resume. It should not be too many.
If you’re a bit older, you should stay with an employer for at least 2 more than 3 years to not give a negative impression. Unless you can explain it, for example, with health problems. Then logically other activity…
After two years.
However, I would not consider a change after 6 months as per se negative, but if you really want to take on at least the paper professional experience, 2 years would be the minimum for me to attribute any value to the job.
This depends on some factors. Frequent changes between different industries do not necessarily look good. However, if you can leave a good impression, many entries in the CV are only incidental again.
Of course you’re right. The industry remains the same with me, I only look for another employer. But the previous CV did not look so good, among others because I changed my subject. So I don’t want to deteriorate my resume unnecessarily.
I therefore tend to change after 1 to 1.5 years.
Why should a study change be bad?
I see that
Work is not all life.
Because it is relevant for many good jobs. That’s my impression.
Why do you always think so much? If you decided wrong and then you changed, it’s hard.
Personally, I don’t find a change of study bad. It can be designed like this. Especially if there are other potential deficits.
