Is already having a job stopping me from getting a new one?

Question

how i can get a new job? i cant pay my rent if i quit

Answer 1

It's always easier to GET a job when you HAVE a job.

If you are out of work, employers know you are desperate.  They fear you will hire on, then quit as soon as you find something better.

If you HAVE a job, they know you are looking for something better, and they have more reason to believe you will stay.

Don't quit.  Find a job first.  You may have to give up a social life for a few weeks while you look.

Another tip:  Don't apply to just one job at a time, then wait to find out if you got it.  Apply to as many places as you can.

Since you HAVE a job, do more homework on prospective employers before you even apply.  Try to find out more about how it is to work there.

Answer 2

Make sure you get a new job and then quit.

Answer 3

Well, what you can do in the menatime is compile a resume and start sending your resume out to different companies....Im sure youll get some interviews and then if you get a callback for one of those jobs, you can resign from your current position.  In the meantime, dont quit your current job or that will make things worse.

Answer 4

Employers would rather Interview people who already have a job - as they already have an idea of how to behave and what is expected of them in a particular job.
