After staying at a new job, how long until you start applying for something new? I’ve been told to give a new job at least one year as long as it’s not toxic. But some people say you don’t learn anything for your first two years.

Nah - as soon as you feel it, start checking out other options. I’m a few months in, I had an inkling the first few weeks after seeing how dysfunctional the agency is… I know I need to find something different for my mental health.

If you KNOW it's bad, start applying six months in so you can LEAVE after one year! If things get better, you can stay, but interviewing can take forever.

Yep. The only reason I'd consider a switch is if the job you've started sucks. Also six months in will likely mean you'll get a new role in one year or so.

Conventional wisdow says "stay in the role for one year" for a reason. Maybe once or twice in your entire career you can switch earlier, but is it going to help when you show a CV with 5 jobs in 2 years to the next recruiter?

In 2 years you should become proficient at what you do in a given functional area.

Did a first interview with hr rep, went very well. she set up the hiring manager meeting for a few days later. Met with the manager. Another great conversation, went over time and was told I’d hear back about panel set up. Following day I get a request from hr rep to “continue the conversation” with manager. This is set up Tuesday.
Why do you think the manager wants to meet again? Good? Bad? I felt great about the interview when we ended.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

I had a phone screening with a recruiter (who is a TD Industries employee- not outside recruiter) I asked specifically when they were looking to hire on, he said a month give or take a few weeks. That was on September 9th. I sent a thank you followup email the next day with letters of recommendation like I had mentioned in our conversation. I sent a second follow up email asking if they had made any decisions on who will be asked for inperson interviews, he said....check comments plz 🙏
