How bad is it to leave a role after 6 months? For context: it would be for a dream job, and I’ve shown longevity (4 yrs) at my job before this one.

Esp if you have a job lined up already, go for it. And 🤞🏼 the one you leave for is what you hope it is. Once you’re there you prob wanna stay for a bit so it wouldn’t look like a pattern.

People I’ve hired have handed in their resignation after 3 months, 5 months or 6 months before. On my end there’s never any judgement, especially if they’re leaving for an opportunity they really value. I don’t think I’ve let an employee leave for a new job without wishing them well, and telling they’re welcome back. That even more emphasized if they’re talented because they act as ambassadors for your company once they’ve left.

Ultimately, life is short, if you have your dream offer, take it. The only thing I hate about people leaving quickly is that I need to spend time interviewing again lol.

Leave. Run don’t walk. Remember they would cut it you if they found their dream person X for your position.
