I'm in a metropolitan city in Texas and graduated college 2 years ago this month. My first job lasted 7 months before being laid off and the next one was 5 months before being laid off.
I'm at a job now that is enjoyable, but the pay is $18/hr with no benefits. Obviously better than being unemployed. Only thing is is that I work very closely with the CEO, so I'm learning a lot. Currently been there 8 months now and I got the job bc I know one of my boss's colleagues who recommended me (idk if that's important but thought I should throw that out there).
I want to stay and for this business to grow. But, there's hardly any work and I'm the only one in the office so I don't think he'll be getting me health insurance anytime soon or giving me a raise.
I want to stay here at least a year, but I'm afraid the job hoping is going to look horrible.
How long before I start applying elsewhere?
Edit: My last two jobs were as a marketing coordinator and social media specialist. This new job is an Executive Assistant position and I actually think I want to go in the admin direction.
