Would you apply for a new job if it was barely over $200 more per month?

It would be about what I graduated in, but so far I got turned down. 🤷‍♂️

If the new job offered possibilities for advancement, then maybe, but if it's for the money alone, it wouldn't be worth it.

@Ontheroad They say you should go apply for jobs you're not fully qualified for, but that always puts you at risk of being turned down for someone more qualified.

@scooogy That would make sense if you are at a dead end at your current job and are just trying to get out of there regardless of where you end up. Otherwise why apply for more of the same? Job hopping with no plan won't get you anywhere and can in fact look bad on a resume. Have a plan, map out where you want to be in 5 years, 10 years, etc., and then start looking for jobs that will get you where you want to go.
