An employee is satiated with his/her work as it is in line with their needs and interests but due to the competitive nature of the market, the employee opts for a change because of many reasons. This could be a huge blunder if the opportunities attached with are not analyzed.
At the dawn of ones career mistakes do occur as there exists a factor called nervousness that disallows the person to remain calm. During the first interview the employee is unable to answer questions even if he/she knows the answer to it. Another mistake that a fresher does is duplicating another resume hence it is often found that students from same college have the same CV format. Also the job seekers forget to eliminate points that might not be valid for them. For example if you are replicating a CV ideally made for someone in the service industry, it might contain facts like height, weight, etc. But when you are applying for an administration job, these facts are not important.
Most employees change job for an increment but before making this decision one should compare the present work environment with the new. Even if the new job pays you more there are other things that one requires to continue working. One should avoid jumping at every opportunity. Every office has different work culture and adopting a new culture after being familiar with one particular culture for long is difficult.
The role you play at a new venture might be different and difficult from the previous one hence the decision should not be made in haste. Look for the opportunities to diversify when entering a new organization and have an optimistic attitude if the decision has been already made.
