Would you be hesitant to make a job move right now with everything that happened in the world this weekend with Iran?

My friend received an offer this morning and called me in a panic about it as they feel if it’s too risky because of the talks of a potential world unrest.

I honestly didn’t know what advice to give her. What are your thoughts on this?

Unless it has something to do with energy or government work (or something else directly relevant), I wouldn’t be worried about it

I would be hesitant to make a job move just in general. The job market is awful, and they are having more and more layoffs every single day. It really isn't a great time to be switching roles.
