If you’re interviewing at places and then receive a promotion at your current job (that you don’t like), is it bad to leave right after being promoted?

Nope. You do you. Don’t let a title stand in the way of your happiness.

Maybe they’re trying to keep you from leaving by promoting you.

But on the other hand, if you’re leaving to a new shop, see if that place will give you the same title as your new promotion. 👍🏼

I did exactly this.☝️

You might find it slightly more difficult to get a new job with your new title (if it involves new responsibilities) since you were promoted but didn’t really get experience at that level. Otherwise yeah what they said ^^
