There are many different definitions of change, but one we often come across is how it relates to a job - switching from one to another. It can be daunting to make such a huge life decision, and can feel like a risky move. However, change can be a great thing and can bring a range of benefits, such as learning new skills, gaining more experience and, often, a better salary. In this article, we'll explore why and how to know when it might be time to start looking for a new job.
There are a few key indicators to look out for when thinking of changing your job. Firstly, do you feel unhappy with your current role? This could take the form of feeling anxious about coming to work each day, feeling unappreciated and not rewarded for your efforts, or feeling that you're not being challenged enough - it's important to evaluate these feelings before deciding to move on.
Are you feeling unfulfilled in your current role? Your career should be about more than your next payslip - it should be about feeling proud of the work you do, feeling like you're growing, and truly utilising your skills. If these feelings are absent and you can't see a path towards personal growth within your current job, it might be time to look elsewhere.
Are you stuck in a pay grade with no promotion prospects? It's easy to become complacent at work, and realise that you've been in the same job for a long time — but sometimes it's beneficial to assess if this job can take you to where you want to be in terms of career progression. If you feel like you're in a stagnant salary bracket, it's likely worth considering a new job to gain greater opportunities.
Finally, take a look at your work environment. A great team can make or break a job, so it's worth assessing your work environment and whether it is providing you with a happy, healthy, and supportive environment. Some signs that your workplace is not looking after you could be feeling disrespected or undermined, a lack of actual support, or even feeling weighed down by negativity.
When you have decided that a change of job could be beneficial for you, the next step is to do your research - look into what opportunities are out there, what salaries are available, and which roles could be interesting for you. Identify your wants, needs and wants in a job and start searching job listings which meet your criteria.
It is also very important to prepare your resume — update the sections that no longer apply, highlight and emphasise your hard and soft skills, tailor it to the job description, and indicate your career goals. Make sure you create an accompanying Cover Letter and be mindful of your CV's design, as this could make all the difference.
Finally, make a plan. It's great to have an idea of where you want to be and the steps you need to take to get there. Write down your goals, create a timeline whereby you can achieve them, and make sure you prioritize — this will make the job-seeking process a whole lot less daunting.
The key takeaway from this article is to assess if you're really ready for a change — make sure to look at the signs and consider the implications both for your career and in your personal life. The jobseeking process can be complex, but it's worth the effort if it means you can go forward with your career in a positive and rewarding way. So if you feel like it's time to change jobs, use the information here to take the first steps towards it.
To summarise, career change is a common and beneficial step to take, and being aware of the signs that it's time to move on, researching the job market, tailoring your resume, and creating a plan to realistically achieve your goals can help ensure the transition goes as smoothly as possible. Don't be afraid to make a change — take the leap, and you might just find yourself in a much better position.
Finally, don't be afraid to take action. There is a wealth of opportunity out there, so make the most of it and use the research and preparation you have done to reach out with your CV and Cover Letter. Good luck, and happy job-seeking!

LinkedIn is the world’s leading professional networking site. It’s a goldmine for businesses, professionals, and job seekers alike, connecting them to like-minded people, influencers, potential clients and employees, and opening up limitless opportunities. It goes without saying, then, that having a good profile is essential for any business or professional looking to maximize the potential of LinkedIn. In this article, we’ll design 10 strategies that will help you stand out from the crowd and maximize your presence on the platform. It won’t be easy, but with a little hard work, dedication, and consistency, you can see the results that you want in no time. So, without further ado, let's get started!
Your profile is the online equivalent of a first impression. Therefore, it's important that your LinkedIn profile looks aesthetically-pleasing, encourages others to read more and ultimately portrays the right impression of you and your business. Make sure your profile is completely filled out. This includes a professional-looking headshot, an appropriate cover image, and a detailed summary of who you are and what you do. Additionally, use keywords in your profile to make it more discoverable when people search for related terms. Also, review and update your profile regularly to ensure no out-of-date information is available.
Content is the currency of LinkedIn and creating engaging content is one of the best ways to drive conversations, build relationships, and put yourself in front of a relevant audience. Long-form posts are a great way to share your knowledge with the LinkedIn community. Not only do they tend to perform better, but they also keep readers engaged as they contain more information. Keep the content you post relevant to your industry and up-to-date with the latest trends, and use visuals and multimedia wherever possible to grab attention and keep readers interested.
One of the most powerful aspects of LinkedIn is the vast network of professionals it has to offer. To benefit from it, you need to strategically network with the right people and connect with influencers in your field. Start by utilizing the “People you may know” feature to find relevant connections, then join groups related to your industry and get involved in the conversations. Proactively reach out to people who you're interested in connecting with and make sure you have an effective approach to build meaningful relationships.
Company pages are the perfect way to introduce your business to the LinkedIn community and create a dedicated presence on the platform. Create a page for your business and make sure it's kept up to date with your latest events, news, and product releases. Additionally, regularly post updates to keep followers informed and engaged. Make use of the “Follow” button to build your audience and invite connections to follow your page for regular updates and insights.
Analyzing your profile performance is essential if you want to make the most of your presence on LinkedIn. Monitor your profile to get an understanding of how your content is performing and where you can make improvements. The “Insights” tab is an incredibly valuable tool in tracking views and engagement levels, and it can provide invaluable insights into audience preferences and key topics of discussion.
If you want to benefit from the full suite of features available on LinkedIn, then using LinkedIn ad campaigns is essential. Understand the different ad types available and position your ads accordingly. Set goals and objectives for your campaigns and develop a budget that takes into account the size of your audience and the campaign duration.
Endorsements are a great way to increase visibility and raise awareness of your profile. Reach out to colleagues and ask them to endorse you for the skills that they have worked with you on. As a gesture of good faith, reciprocate their endorsements.
Engaging with people in discussions is an effective way to showcase your expertise and become a thought leader in your field. Join existing discussion groups or create your own, then get involved in conversations and share your insights and knowledge.
If you want to benefit from the potential opportunities of LinkedIn, then following the above strategies is essential. From optimizing your profile to leveraging endorsements, each strategy is key in ensuring your profile stands out from the competition and you become the professional that you set out to be. Through hard work, dedication, and consistency, you can gradually improve your presence on the platform and maximize the potential of this professional networking tool.
