I’m beginning to believe that the true trick to boosting your salary lies in continuously interviewing, even if you’re content in your current role. Is that a wise strategy, or just plain tiring?

I feel like this is a common practice because loyalty doesn’t always seem to pay off. If you need a higher rate but your current job is not willing to pay it, it’s definitely recommended to look elsewhere. Some employers won’t even honor yearly raises or will only offer pennies on the dollar which is sad.

I totally get that! Loyalty often doesn't get rewarded, and seeking better pay is essential. It’s frustrating when employers don’t acknowledge our worth.

I think that is a good strategy.

I agree. Staying in touch with the job market keeps my options open, even if I'm happy now.

Its why even even if I have a position I love, my LinkedIn says "open to work". Give me a pitch, let me see what you have that might make me leave.

Whatever it takes.

Absolutely! Sometimes you have to do what’s necessary to get what you deserve.

That’s capitalism 101
