I’m in a job that I’ve been in for a long time but am in a unique situation where I will need to relocate and either find another job at my company or take a package and find a job elsewhere. I would probably make more money staying at my company but feel like I’ve gotten too comfortable because I either feel unqualified or underwhelmed reading pretty much any job posting (and maybe I’m suffering from a bit of corporate burnout). Any thoughts or advice?

Are there open roles within your company that you could apply for? Sometimes taking what you know and applying that knowledge to other areas of the business is more rewarding than going to a similar role in a different company.

Where would the new job be ? Do you have a desire for a change of pace? Maybe relocating can revitalize you

Expecting to end up in Texas regardless of if I stay at my company or find another job as I’m currently overseas on a non permanent basis. I suppose I’d be having to go through changes regardless, its really how much change and am I thinking the grass is greener by being tempted to use the forced move as an opportunity to work elsewhere. It’s hard to know which is better for me so I assume the best thing is to cast a very wide net and continue to explore both. I just feel unfocused and unsure of next steps without a focus. In addition to hearing from some anonymous voices, I may need to tap into some old mentors or bosses for some perspective.

Consulting?

Not currently in consulting

Interviewing with a company I’m excited about and they requested to have the next level (I believe final level) be pushed to the second week of January since they’re team is overwhelmed. I agreed and suggested times and am waiting to hear back. Meanwhile I had another company reach out this past week for a role I’m less excited over. They’ve already reached out for my final interview round this week. I already disclosed that I’m waiting to hear from a company I’ve been interviewing with. Cont’d.

So I had a first interview this past Friday at a company that I had previously interviewed with and made it to the final round last month. They decided to go with an internal candidate after it came down to me and him. The current role is more senior, and was one I was asked to apply for by the hiring manager, whom I also met with during the last set of interviews. I emailed the recruiter to f/u on Friday and still have not gotten a reply. Should I be concerned?

Hiya Guys, so I can tell I am burned out and inching into the grey pit of complacency. The burn out is already here, but the slide into grey-pit is not acceptable. I have a masters in business admin, 8+yrs of hospitality management experience, and a bachelors in science.

I really need advice/strategy for skill development, despite burn out and the weakened motivation. I am in a role that can, (in 2+ yrs), make me eligible to start at entry-level position in an area I want. I don't have 2 yrs.
