Job hunting questions

I’m in a Job is it okay to look for a new job?

The simple answer is yes. Maybe you didn’t know this but most people in their twenties will change job every two years and at any given moment 70% of the workforce in Ireland is job hunting. So if your looking for a new job while in your current roll is totally normal.

You do not need to tell your current employer that you are job hunting, it’s common courtesy for a recruiter not to tell the candidate’s current employer and I don’t think I’ve ever come across a case of this happening. But, in some small towns this can happen if anyone asks you at work have you been looking you can say, “I’m always looking. Isn’t everyone?”
