I got a job offer for what seems to be a great company but I’m not sure if I would have the same life balance. I started interviewing as a way to see my worth in the industry. My current role is at a small company, and I’m not sure how I could grow within the role because Im not advancing my skill, I just do the same thing every day at a lower level. I like my current role because it’s flexible and I’m paid well for not doing very much work. Should I switch to a more rigorous job?

If you’re young, yes, you should switch. You want to set yourself up for future success, both financially and career wise. You can always step back later.

You know the answer yourself and just seeking validation by asking. I can tell you from experience, listen to your gut, it’s right 99% of the times. Even if the WLB or culture is not as good as your current role, every new opportunity helps you discover more of yourself, not to mention add new skills. Just go with the flow..

Should I start hiding my graduation year on my resume?

I’m interviewing again for fun and the vague feedback I get is “lack of experience /deep expertise”.
