How long do you need to be at a new job before it benefits your resume? I changed industries and took the equivalent of a promotion or two to do so. The question is effectively “how long do you need to be at a new role before that’s who you are, rather than whoever you were before your current role.” I imagine it depends on a number of factors, but asking in general. Not looking to change jobs and am simply curious as I was in the same industry and company for the first 5 years of my career.

2 years make it more legit but people pick you for various reasons. It can be your past jobs or past titles or a specific niche use case they need for the team (be in a specific city or know how to sell something or be good at analytics, etc). It’s hard to guess what works for which role

Question for funds folks, since no one is around to answer any questions and I can't seem to find this answer anywhere. Why can't a placement agent combine or integrate the offering of interests in the sponsor's fund with the contemporaneous offering of interests in another fund? Is it based on reputational risk or from a sales perspective in case someone rejects both funds, any other issues? Thanks!

Hi fishes, in a dilemma....switched to a Big4 from MNC(almost 7 years of exp) in April 2020. The pay was normalised at 15.5LPA. Will get the package revised next month to 16.25 LPA. Now Deloitte has approached, so can I ask for 30%pay hike considering the switch will happen after completing almost 11-12 months in my current organization or can I ask for more than 30%, depending if I get a senior consultant or manager role? Also will the switch within a year have any negative impact?
