“Not being able to utilize my abilities” was the strongest motivation. The company had many different departments, and I was assigned to a department that was different from the job I wanted to do. At one point, I was transferred to another department, but the department hadn’t changed even after seven years, so I decided to change jobs because I didn’t have any hope for a change.

How did you change jobs most recently?
When asked how they most recently changed jobs, the number one answer was “Applying from a job information site (40%)” and the second place was “Hello Work” (22%). Since there are many companies recruiting on private job information sites, there is a large amount of information, and the search function is easy to use, so when looking for a new job, I think it will be easy to efficiently find a company that meets your needs.
What are your thoughts on changing jobs?
When asked about your thoughts on changing jobs, 1st place was “You should calm down before deciding what to do (44.5%)” and 2nd place was “It’s better to actively change jobs regardless of the length of employment (29.5%)” %)”have become. Even if you feel dissatisfied and want to change jobs, many people think it’s better to stay calm and not act impulsively.
Summary of survey results
We conducted a questionnaire survey on “job change” to 200 men and women. Regarding the number of times they have changed jobs since joining the workforce, the most common answer was “once.” There seemed to be few people who changed jobs many times.
Regarding the most recent “reason” that made them want to change jobs, “dissatisfaction with salary” came first. If your salary is low, no matter how good your work is, it will be difficult to make a living, and you will also feel anxious about the future.
When asked how they most recently changed jobs, the most common answer was “applying from a job information site.” It seems that more people use private company sites than public institutions like Hello Work.
The majority of your thoughts on changing jobs were that you should calm down and then decide what to do. You may regret it if you act immediately without thinking carefully, so it is necessary to think carefully.
What was the reason and opportunity for you to change jobs?
