too long andwhat is the minimum length oftime you should stay in a

withcondence & conversations withemployers have indicated,
toget 2 years from an employeeis an acceptable minimum. Youonly
damage your reputationby changing jobs every 6 – 12months. Staying
long term in

The same role in thesame company for 10 yearswill get you pigeon
