Best Approach?

I always hate leaving jobs. I hate feeling like a disappointment to my employer/higher ups, but you need to do whatโ€™s right for you!

If itโ€™s possible, can you start with a couple of hours at the new job and take a few less hours at the old one and slowly phase the one out into the new?

im more worried about the residents than my coworkwers to be honest. and no the new job would be full time and the current one is full time so i would be doing one or the other.

hey yeti :)

i work as a care assistant at the moment so alot of that doesnt apply. and the next job is an assistant psychologist which is what i need for my doctorate experience and also yes pays alot more! ive not been at my current job for 2months yet so not had time to get bonuses or letters like that. also i cant get a payrise to anything like i could get and i have to do various qualifications to get small ones. and my clients are the residents i look after, i feel kinda bad because ive formed a friendly bond with some of them.

Oh, care assistant? I mean not to denigrate, but thought you had been higher on the ladder, so to speak. Not much cause for worry in leaving, as this training simply falls short of your ultimate goal as psychologist - or so you could state without prevaricating in the least.

Methinks it's the nature of the job, in a way. The closer you are to doctor, the more distant from your patients, in the modern world. A necessary sacrifice.

haha i thought id be able to jump in somewhere higher up too but that wasnt the case and i needed a job. luckily the residents are very relevent to me and part of me does enjoy the work so definitely done better than most of my graduating friends who have no idea what to do or where to start.

Best Approach?

oh i have done that but annoyingly there are no opportunities that will what i need for my doctorate other than the baseline of care experience. theres the odd bit of e-learning i can do but theres not enough of the clinical population relevent to require an assistant psychologist job there
