Episode 168: “Should I Job Hop?” — Try These 3 Strategies First and Make the Most Out of Your Current Role 

When we don’t like something or something isn’t serving us, what do we usually do? Get rid of it! But what if that “something” is your job. Should you get rid of it and find something else? While every situation is different and there’s a time and a place for exiting your current position, I want you to consider these three things before job hopping: 

  • Have you thought about where you want to go? 
  • Have you upskilled and grown to your full capacity in your current role? 
  • Have you attempted to solve issues that could move your business and career forward? 

So, at times when you bask in the unhappiness that can come with your job and you ask yourself, “Should I job hop?”, I want you to first follow the three strategies I outline in this episode.
