Changing Jobs Can Be a Joyful Experience

If you want to keep up with Arthur’s latest writings, sign up for an email notification whenever he releases a new column. According to a survey by Monster.com, an astounding 96% of American workers reported searching for a new job at the end of last year. Despite this, only around 30% of workers actually change jobs, likely due to fear of the unknown and the desire for stability. However, research indicates that job changers report higher levels of satisfaction with their new job, with an initial honeymoon period that lasts about six weeks, followed by a dip in satisfaction that is more pronounced for those with a self-centered career orientation than those with an organization-centered orientation. Happier people are also more adaptable to career changes and are better able to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Another key factor affecting job satisfaction is whether the change was voluntary or not. To manage feelings of uncertainty and make a successful job change, it’s important to manage your expectations, find happiness outside of work, and be proactive in the job market. Most people change jobs multiple times in their career, so it’s not as dramatic a life upheaval as it may seem.
