How do you know when it’s time to stop job hunting and just settle in? I’ve been interviewing on and off for months, and every new role starts to look the same. Wondering if it’s burnout or instinct.

When it starts to feel like I'm not making any headway. Or when I get burned out, whichever comes first. If you're still employed, there's nothing wrong with taking breaks as needed. Even if you're not, I think that's true. Job hunting is a grind.

I’ve been on and off for a few months now. Disillusioned with the whole process and how bad it’s gotten. Just trying not to totally burn myself out, but it’s easy to do.

I'm in finance/tech FPA, looking to go back to the defense industry for a 25% increase in TC. But wanted to see if I should leverage the new salary with current company to see if they'll match.

Background: got a promotion at current company that didn't come with sufficient increase . After stating my case I was told it would be evaluated next October, which is what prompted the initial job search.

Current TC 103K [88/15], offer 125k base [+discretionary bonus].
