Better challenges and opportunity !

I had the best job, the best across the floor, yet I had to change the job the city. I don’t know what to say!!.

Diplomatic dodging is disastrous. Earning a lively hood is a basic human right.

I bagged the top incentive, I was never package hungry, yet I had to quit.

My passion association everything went down the drain, or I will have to boss my bosses boss, this I did not do, is this is my failure?

looking for a better package and designation!

for learning new ideas and skills.... because every new job give a new environment.........that's it....

If someone is asked such a question in the interview I feel he should be honest enough to put forward the real reason for his search- people see through a lie and they know when the person is using a glib reply just to impress the interviewer. Now the question remains what if there is a totally unacceptable answer (can't get along with people, politics in the company etc) I think at such a time the person needs to rethink his decision -- if all else is OK in the company and just ppl skills that is damaging your longevity U need to introspect more and really find out if there maybe any other reason for leaving, if u find one. YES go ahead and leave ...... else ppl will be ppl and they will be in the new place too ... watch it!!!!

I have had this experience ... when I left my previous organization (outwardly) it seemed it was because of the politics: believe me I stepped out of the environment  (took leave) just to introspect and really understand why I wanted to leave and the answer was not PEOPLE but the fact that considering the type of personality I am --- I need challenges and opportunities to explore my potential and take more initiatives "which was being fulfilled in my old job" till things changed and I started looking too capable to the top management - then my NEED stopped being fulfilled. I got thwarted from self discovery and further challenges. That was the day I got my BEST ANSWER ..
