I know someone who has switched jobs 3x in the past year and has gotten more money with each job. They honestly inspired me that there’s hope in this terrible job market. Do you feel inspired to start job hunting next year?

That's genuinely impressive. I would ask them their secret, because I've been looking and haven't found anything in about eight months. I'm curious how they're getting so many jobs and so frequently. I'm honestly not really feeling very inspired right now just based on my own personal experiences with this market.

I’m sorry to hear that wishing you the best of luck. They have a lot of experience and connections im guessing

I’ve switched jobs (unwillingly) twice in the past year. It’s definitely the best way to make more money but I wouldn’t recommend it in a market like this one. It makes you look like a flight risk to future employers and it will eventually catch up with your acquaintance

Yea very true

Good for them. It’s not for me right now. I’m happy with where I’m at, so I don’t want to rock the boat. Are they in a niche area? I know around me there are some good opportunities, but only for specialities.

Yes they are in a niche area. I’m sure that’s helped and it’s also what I’ve been seeing get more responses too

It's remarkable that someone could find three job openings in the past year, let alone land the jobs! There always seems to be someone with remarkable luck. It can be inspiring however, just as a reminder that things are not as stagnant as we keep hearing. Just knowing that some people have been able to move around is encouraging.

Yes it is isn’t it! They’ve inspired me to potentially leave my job this year

That’s great to hear. I’m always on the look out but not really actively search right now

Things do seem to be getting less crazy

Agreed I believe companies are less on panic mode

That’s so impressive! I try to always keep a pulse on the job market but it’s been pretty rough

As a CRC I’m sure you’ll be able to find another job. Always need CRCS

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off. Momentum and pessimism over lack of stimulus could take us to the 3107 target quickly, nearly a 10 percent decline over the next month. Stay short my friends. It's going to get bumpy.
