My current job (that I've been at for 10 years) only took me a month to find. My previous job took me about 5 months to find. That sucked.

Re: How long did it take you to find your current job?
I love my job, so I only apply for things that come up that I know I want where I work because I really want to stay in the organization. When I decided to switch from Wall Street to my current field it took me about 2 months (which was really the time from applying to hire date).

Re: How long did it take you to find your current job?
6 months....started looking immediately when I realized I made a huge mistake by taking my last job. Started looking in March and started my new job in September.
It became like a full time 2nd job for me - I was determined!

Re: How long did it take you to find your current job?
at one point, it took me 6+ months to find a job when i was ready to leave my first so i know how frustrating it can be! That didn't work out well and i was very lucky and got my next gig 4 days later. Where I am now took about 2.5 months from application to first day.

Re: How long did it take you to find your current job?
I started looking in Feb. on and off.
Did it more actively when I was laid off in May. Knew it was coming 'cus of corporate restructuring.
Spend 2 months aggressively looking - had must have been 25 interviews total - and got several offers.
I turned them down and am so glad I did 'cus I finally got a great offer days later!
