0.9 years
2.6 years
7 years
2 years
Current job is 3 months. The 7 year stint was at a friendly agency, paying reasonably for the area with good perks, friends with the directors, short commute etc. What I wasn’t doing though was evaluating whether I was still learning. Turned out I wasn’t, and if I’m being honest with myself I should have left 18-24 months earlier. The last 2 year stint was the most instructive of my whole career, and I left mostly due to moving country rather than a problem with the post.
