How to Stop Hopping from Job to Job

from The Workforce Link Podcast · host Central Workforce Development Board

Job-hopping is a pretty popular habit, maybe more so now than ever. And I think it happens for different reasons. Sometimes we don’t know what we want. Sometimes we’re just not ready for the challenges that come our way. Sometimes we don’t feel like doing that job anymore, so we move to something else before earning our first paycheck.  Changing jobs frequently can negatively affect your career search. Now, that doesn’t mean you have to stay in a job just because you hate it or it’s miserable. That’s not what I’m talking about here. I’m talking about bouncing from one place to another quickly and without good reason.  There’s really no way to sugarcoat it. Changing jobs often doesn’t look good for you, and employers aren’t impressed.  But the good news is you can overcome that. So in today’s episode, we’ll talk about how to stop hopping from job to job.  Links in Today’s Episode: How to Find Your Why The Central Workforce Development Board and Missouri Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development is an Equal Opportunity employer/program.
