Job-hopping - opportunities and risks for young people

HUYỀN TRANG |

Job-hopping is becoming more and more popular among young people. However, besides the opportunity for development, changing jobs also has many potential risks.

Young people's concept of job dancing

With the desire to find a new job that is more suitable in terms of salary and development opportunities, Mr. Duy Quang - an employee of a media company in Hanoi, is considering a decision to change jobs.

“Nhieu cong viec duoc tuyen dung rong rai tren mang xa hoi, giup qua trinh tim viec tro nen nhanh chong va thuan tien hon. Nho do, toi khong mat qua nhieu thoi gian de tim kiem cong viec moi,” anh Quang chia se. Anh: Huyen Trang
Many jobs are widely recruited on social networks, making the job search process faster and more convenient. Thanks to that, I did not spend too much time looking for a new job, Quang shared. Photo: Huyen Trang

Mr. Duy Quang said: "The current environment has helped me accumulate a lot of experience, but the opportunities for promotion and income have not met my expectations. I want to find a new step to be able to develop my career better".

At the same time, Mr. Quang also said that the cost of living in big cities, especially the capital, is too expensive. With his current salary, he finds it very difficult to cover a comfortable life and save for the future. Photo: Huyen Trang

Contrary to Mr. Quang's point of view, Mr. Nguyen Quang Huy - an accountant in Hanoi, hesitated: "Current work is not too bad, this is a stable and familiar environment. Job-hopping means starting over, which worries me because it may not be a better step.

Moreover, according to Mr. Huy, he can save some money if he spends frugally, not necessarily having to change jobs just for financial reasons. The important thing is to know how to balance your spending and have a long-term plan.

There needs to be calculation and a long-term career strategy

Talking to PV of Lao Dong Newspaper, Dr. Nguyen Minh Phong - former Head of Economic Research Department, Hanoi Institute for Economic - Social Development Research, commented: "Changing jobs is a new calculation of some people who want to improve the working environment and create better income channels, as well as exploit other abilities and strengths of individuals''.

At many times of the year, especially when the economy is volatile, the demand for recruitment also increases, giving workers more options.

'However, you should not change jobs suddenly without careful preparation. Starting from scratch in a new environment can cause individuals to lose their previous accumulated advantages, affecting their income and long-term promotion opportunities' '', Dr. Nguyen Minh Phong shared.

According to Dr. Nguyen Minh Phong, instead of changing jobs based on feelings or temporary impacts, workers should clearly define their career goals, research the labor market and have a suitable conversion plan.

If you find a new job that can best promote your abilities and bring higher value, it will be a step worth considering.

But if there is not enough basis to ensure that change brings better results, stability in the current environment and improving personal skills is also a safe and sustainable direction.
