Applying for Jobs
I worked at the spa for a year.
During that time, I applied for approximately 12 jobs. I was interviewed for 3. I got 2 of them, one of which was a temporary position that only lasted through the holidays, and one of them is the job I have currently. I was being very picky, as I think that any job should have a commitment for a certain timeframe (in my case, 6-month minimum) as just a courtesy to the business who chose to hire you. Of course, I have just received this job, but there are several other jobs I am also qualified for that I would like to apply to.
My mental loyalty coerces me to not even bother applying…but then again, what does it hurt? I suppose there would be the conflict of quitting a job you’ve been at for less than 6 months; the fear of upsetting everyone around you…I hate it when I upset people. It’s one of my biggest fears.
What would you do, if you just got a job, then saw several others you’d like to apply for? What are your opinions regarding job loyalty?
