Is it okay to switch jobs now?

Experience:

* 1st company: 3 years 10 months
* 2nd company: 6 months
* Current company: 1 year 3 months till now

Layoffs are happening at my current company, and I could be affected at any time.

Would switching jobs now be the right decision ?

It is better not to switch jobs now. First find a job then resign so that you can have an offer in hand. Ask yourself why do you want to switch jobs.Do your homework before joining anywhere.

Yes u can do u have completed 1.3 years right

Yes

You are currently in which company?

No, even if u come out, u have to wait indefinitely..in another 2years from now IT will hit rock bottom

As long as your reason is valid & your target company is wise enough, there's every reason to switch.

I am seeking new employment, I was recently laid off due to lack of work. I would very much appreciate any leads.

Working remotely the last three years has become a way of my life and supports our current situation well, therefore I am seeking a similar role but will consider other opportunities.
