I just started a new job, not 100% sure it's the right job for me and I don't want to go back to my old toxic job either.

How long should I stick around before starting looking again? People are nice and WLB is pretty good. It's just the type of work is not what I expect. So, I could stay for a bit but not more than a year.

I started looking at month 4, I was honest about what’s not working (the 11 hour work days) and didn’t have issue with any of my interviewers.

I’m currently in my 4th month at a new role. Not enjoying it. Been interviewing for new roles already given I’m not interested in these 12 hour work days. The interviewers will ask why you’re leaving so soon but 1. If they cared THAT much - they wouldn’t even interview you. 2. Just be honest and it’ll help you a ton. Hope this can help. Reach out if needed.

I'd look asap while hiring is still strong. Who knows what the market looks like in 6 months to a year

4-6 months then starting looking make sense. Bonus will be out around Feb. So, I should at least stay till then.

Why is it that when ever I look at “entry level” jobs in IT they always want 2-4 years of experience. It’s entry level that means maybe some certifications if they didn’t major in the field or a degree in the field. Not 2-4 years already working in the field. Can someone please explain this to me?
