Picture this - you've just started a new job. Congratulations by the way!

But...after just a few days, a few weeks, or even a few months you're ready to leave.

- Maybe you discovered the job is TOXIC af.
- Maybe another company offered you a better salary.
- Maybe once you started you realized the position is entirely different than the job description.
- Maybe you realized the job wasn't a good fit for you.

Whatever the reason, you're ready to chuck the deuces and move on.

And that is fine! Contrary to popular belief, you DO NOT owe your job any loyalty.

However, you may wonder if you should add this short-term job to your resume since you were only there for a short period of time.

The answer is a little complex. There are some instances where you may want to include this job, and there are some instances where including it may not be the best decision.

In this short video, I break down when you should and shouldn't add a short-term job to your resume.

I hope you find this video helpful!

Most of my jobs don't last for over a year. So my resume looks like I do a lot of job hopping, how can I fix that?

You have gainned a new follower 🥰 I do have a few questions. Should I leave off a job that I had for a month? And another job that I was at for 2 months? What if it comes up when thay do a background check?
