How early is too early to start interviewing at new places?

Totally happy with my current gig, but just got a referral at a place that would be cool to talk to too.

Talk to them. No harm in it. And if the opportunity is better, chase the opportunity.

Chat with them! The interviewing process can take a long time and it doesn’t hurt to learn more about the role while you have a solid referral.

In similar situations, I've been straight up and given them the choice.

How long have you been on your current job?

Proceed with the interview, you should always keep your options open. And just be appreciative and thankful to your current place if you do decide to leave, if they are professionals, they will understand.

Same, it’s hiring season so I’m window shopping. If there’s an opportunity I feel good about and will help me propel in my career, I’m going for it.

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach.

I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring?

Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
