I think a year is the standard. But, s** happens. What's goin on?

Yah I’m hoping the next place will understand. Honestly before this I only lived/ worked in NY metro area and didn’t have an understanding of life outside of large cities as silly as that sounds. The West is undoubtedly its own place lol

1 year is the standard but at the very least 6 months. It is enough time to realize if it is for you or not. Nowadays with the job market as it is, I feel people care a bit less tbh

No such thing as “too soon” as long as you have respectable sales figures.

Hello All, Office Sup. for a major hospital, w/ 15 years experience. I have lots of experience in every position in the office, especially in training. I recently applied for an EPIC trainer position within the company and according to Glassdoor the average pay is about 23k more than what I currently make. I’m afraid of getting a lowball offer since 1. they obviously know my current salary and 2. I’d be new at this particular role, although I meet qualifications. Any advice if that’s the case?
