Are you looking for a new job?
I am currently in a pretty good job situation as a software developer: decent pay, good managers, fun and interesting co-workers. I don’t particularly dislike people I work with and I am respected.Passively searching from Day 1.I have been passively looking for work ever since I started the position because I heard some reasonable advice to never stop looking. If you want to be successful, you should always be on the lookout and prepared for better opportunities. A better job is a better job, period. Why should I limit myself to opportunities in one company?My current reasons:I have been at my current position for roughly 5 years and I know nearly everything there is to know about the job and, while I am getting incremental raises, I believe that I can make more. I have an established pay rate that I am willing to change jobs for and if a company is still interested in hiring me, I would pursue the position.Priority #1: Increase in Salary.I have a family that depends on my income and any income would help me a lot right now. I also want to save money for a home eventually and afford a few additional things for my children.Priority #2: Add new skills to my resume.Right now, given the 5 years I have been at my current position, I don’t believe I will be adding anything new to it in the coming year or two. In my experience, all interviews include the question:Why do you want to change jobs?This is my answer, I want new skills and I don’t get that from my current job. Without new skills,Priority #3: Interesting work.I believe there are a lot of jobs out there that pay well, but are absolutely boring. For example, my dad once heard that “cyber security” was “where the money is at.” Well, I don’t want to learn about networking and security, I want to build new and exciting software.

Why do I feel guilty about looking for a new job?
It sounds like you have a high sense of loyalty to your employer. That is very admirable for a long time employee. That is somewhat surprising for an employee of 9 months.I have worked in a contract consulting environment for 30+ years. I have always felt a sense of loyalty to my employer. At the same time, due to the uncertain nature of contract-to-contract employment, my job was always at risk. So in order to provide for my family, I kept my resume updated, was passively looked for other employment, and was receptive to new offers. While I want loyal and dedicated employees working for me, I also encourage them to keep their resume updated and options open. It is just common sense.Don't question why you feel guilty. That is an indication of your loyalty and respect for your job.Continue to do your job. Keep options open for other jobs internally. Look for new jobs without a sense of guilt - you need to do it for your own career.

so me and my finace are saving for a down payment for a home. We have both been at our jobs almost 4 years. He is paid hourly, and I am paid hourly plus commission. I got a job offer that equates about how much i earn currently. It would be only an hourly position and I would no longer have to hassle with commission. I a wondering however If I take this position would this kill our chances of getting a home?

What's a good reason why I'm looking for a new job when my real reason is I want more money and a better job title?
Basics first. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting more money and a better job title. That I should believe is the number one reason why people switch jobs and nobody will tell you this is the reason in an interview (an interview is a mind game).Second, never ever tell the interviewer you want more money or a better job title. I think you already knew this but after reading my paragraph above, I hope you didn’t get confused.Now to answer your question, some I believe good reasons to tell interviewers are:I believe in the product, direction and vision of this company and want to become part of it.The new role sounds interesting to me and is something that I would like to work on.I am a good fit for the new role because I have acquired all these skills over the years and my current role is not as good a fit for me as the new role is. I want to apply my skills and keep on improving them in these areas.I would like to get into the whatever industry because I see that as the future of the economy.I personally use the company’s product and am a huge fan of it.This company contributes to charitable causes so I am proud to become a part of these causes.I think I can probably list a few more but just come up with your own line and make it authentic and personal. Never ever lie in your resume and in interviews. You can tell your second best reason and tell the truth at the same time. :-)
