Staying in the same company can be
very comfortable – you know
everyone, you know how everything
works and you don’t have many
challenges to deal with.
However, if your work no longer
inspires you, it could be time to look
for something new.
Do any of these eight signs that
you’ve been in your job too long
sound familiar?
8 SIGNS YOU’VE BEEN IN
YOUR JOB TOO LONG
haysplc.com/viewpoint
You used to take pride in your work
and now you just don’t feel that way
about it anymore; it has become
routine and boring.
You’ve therefore stopped making
an effort, and you’re turning in work
that you know is not your best.
1. You’ve lost your love for
the job and the company
Your working life isn’t supplying you
with any challenges and although
this might have felt great at first,
you now realise that you miss them.
Nothing in your working day is
stimulating your intellect and you
feel disappointed by the ease with
which you can get away with hardly
even trying.
2. You could do your job
in your sleep
If you used to find office socialising
fun, you don’t anymore. You can’t be
bothered getting to know new
people.
You keep conversations as short
and impersonal as possible and
don’t interact with colleagues once
the working day is over.
3. You feel you don’t fit in
You arrive promptly at the start of
the working day and leave
immediately when it ends, keeping
careful track of each break in
between and making sure they
never get cut short.
You count the days until holidays,
even if they’re only a couple of days
long.
4. You’re clock watching and
hate Mondays
Sometimes you feel as if no-one at
work really notices you’re there. You
don’t get asked for your opinions
and no-one treats you as if you have
anything to contribute beyond your
day to day work.
People whom you feel are less
qualified than you are often seem to
get picked first.
5. You feel left out of
meetings and projects
Less capable people always seem
to get chosen before you. You don’t
feel that you get a fair degree of
praise for the work you do, and you
never seem to be singled out for
bonuses.
It’s years since you were last
employee of the month, even though
you’re in a small team.
6. You feel you’re being
overlooked for promotion
When you first started out, you
were passionate about what your
company did and how it did it, but
you feel this passion is waning.
You feel disillusioned and don’t
think senior staff care about the
company the way you once did.
7. You’ve stopped believing in
your company
Perhaps you tell yourself you’re not
talented or brave enough to do
what they did, but even if they
haven’t landed on their feet you feel
they’re better off out of the
company you still work for.
You keep thinking about the new
opportunities open to them which
you’re missing out on.
8. You envy former colleagues
who have resigned
If any of these signs apply to you,
you may now be asking yourself
what you should do about it.
Re-entering the jobs market after a
long time is a daunting prospect.
These simple steps can help.
When you’ve been in one job for a
long time, you need to explain that
you haven’t just been doing one
thing.
Write about projects you worked on
and arrange what you write in an
order that shows you’ve made
progress. These Viewpoint blogs
will help you to avoid common CV
mistakes and ensure you impress
recruiters with your resume.
Update your CV
You will need to explain in positive
terms why you were in one place
for so long. You will also need to
reassure the interviewer that your
skills are up to date.
Then, show that you have what it
takes to integrate into a new
business culture. If you’ve recently
developed new hobbies or done
volunteer work, that can help to
show that you’re still flexible.
Prepare for interview
You could spend all your working
hours looking through job adverts on
your own, but a skilled recruiter will
be able to look at your CV and
instantly match you up with suitable
positions.
After that, it’s up to you. There are
no guarantees, but you could be
about to find yourself in a job that
really makes you feel alive. Visit our
website to speak to a professional
recruiter in your country.

8 Signs You've Been in Your Job Too Long

  • 1. Staying in the same company can be very comfortable – you know everyone, you know how everything works and you don’t have many challenges to deal with. However, if your work no longer inspires you, it could be time to look for something new. Do any of these eight signs that you’ve been in your job too long sound familiar? 8 SIGNS YOU’VE BEEN IN YOUR JOB TOO LONG haysplc.com/viewpoint
  • 2. You used to take pride in your work and now you just don’t feel that way about it anymore; it has become routine and boring. You’ve therefore stopped making an effort, and you’re turning in work that you know is not your best. 1. You’ve lost your love for the job and the company
  • 3. Your working life isn’t supplying you with any challenges and although this might have felt great at first, you now realise that you miss them. Nothing in your working day is stimulating your intellect and you feel disappointed by the ease with which you can get away with hardly even trying. 2. You could do your job in your sleep
  • 4. If you used to find office socialising fun, you don’t anymore. You can’t be bothered getting to know new people. You keep conversations as short and impersonal as possible and don’t interact with colleagues once the working day is over. 3. You feel you don’t fit in
  • 5. You arrive promptly at the start of the working day and leave immediately when it ends, keeping careful track of each break in between and making sure they never get cut short. You count the days until holidays, even if they’re only a couple of days long. 4. You’re clock watching and hate Mondays
  • 6. Sometimes you feel as if no-one at work really notices you’re there. You don’t get asked for your opinions and no-one treats you as if you have anything to contribute beyond your day to day work. People whom you feel are less qualified than you are often seem to get picked first. 5. You feel left out of meetings and projects
  • 7. Less capable people always seem to get chosen before you. You don’t feel that you get a fair degree of praise for the work you do, and you never seem to be singled out for bonuses. It’s years since you were last employee of the month, even though you’re in a small team. 6. You feel you’re being overlooked for promotion

You keep thinking about the new opportunities open to them which you’re missing out on. 8. You envy former colleagues who have resigned
