You are dissatisfied with your current job. There may be a number of things that might need improvement, but before actually changing your job, consider some factors.

1. Think of the things that are good about your job, that make you happy.

2. Then, decide what exactly doesn’t satisfy you in you present job. After you have worked out the positive sides, the negative ones are easier to identify.

3. Before you leave the present place, think if there is a chance to get what is lacking from the job you already have. For example, think of some larger responsibilities you would like to have or some greater projects you would like to be responsible for. You may discuss you desires with your boss, explaining your point of view and offering a try. Maybe, all that you need is taking a month or so of some additional training and you can undertake some new tasks.

4. If you have concerned all the possibilities at your current job, and none of them looked satisfying or promising, you may start thinking about looking for a new job. You may still work at you present place while searching for some other opportunities. This will give you some financial benefit.

5. Networking is a good thing. Ask people, friends, and acquaintances about job openings. Nevertheless, keep in mind things, which didn’t satisfy you at your previous (or don’t satisfy you at your current) job and make sure you find the necessary positive sides in your new job.
