My Opinions on Job Hopping My Opinions on Job Hopping Job Hopping has long ignited controversial discussion among people, as some of them believe that job hopping nowadays is common and it can benefit employees by enabling them to acquire valuable knowledge and skills in different working places, while others argue that job hoppers might be rejected by employers, affirming that only over a long period can employees improve adaptability, gain persistence, learn basic skills and them demonstrate progress. As for me, I believe that in this ever-changing society, job hopping weigh more in benefit. First of all, job hopping provides employees chances to experience different working environment. Each company, institute or organization is believed to embrace its own culture and operational mode. After a long period of working in the same place, people sometimes get tired of their working environment out of the monotonous life, dissatisfaction with salary or even disapproval of company’s value. Under such circumstance, changing for another job might enable them to breathe some fresh air from a new working place. In this case, they can not only learn new skills and knowledge but also explore themselves and gradually find out what kind of job suits them most by comparing different places they have been working in. Secondly, along with the switch of job, employees sometimes need to move to another city or even another country, and this creates opportunity for them to visit various places and, more importantly, to know different people, in which way doses a wider interpersonal connection built, which can be beneficial emotionally or practically for them. Thirdly, job hooping to different position may bring new challenge to employees, but may also help them to discover some unexplored potential or talent in them. For example, Lu Xun, one of the most famous writer in the course of Chinese history, didn’t realized his talent in writing until he switched his job as a doctor. To sum up, job hooping is beneficial for employees to experience new working environment, meeting new people as well as uncover their unexpected potential or talent.
