In our latest research study, we found that the main reason for looking for a new job is "career progression".
Jobseekers look around in order to take the next step up the career ladder but staying within the same industry. Almost 60% responded to this option. In some instances, there becomes a limit and barrier to the progress that can be made within a company and so the only option is to move on elsewhere.
25% of jobseekers are after a new role of a similar level but just want to move away from their current company/organisation. Potentially due to staff or manager clashes, lack of training, money issues, location/commuting difficulties being some of the reasons.
15% however, were looking for a career change all together.

We are delighted to announce that we have made the switch over to a more secure website. Our URL will therefore now read https://www.TipTopJob.com rather than https://www.tiptopjob.com.
Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is the secure version of HTTP. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It means all communications between our users browsers and the website are encrypted. We have made this change with our jobseekers and clients in mind to reassure them that their data is safe with us.

Happy New Year to all of you TipTopers from the whole TipTopJob team. We hope you all had a relaxing and restful break if indeed that is possible when you are rushing from family to friends back to family and more friends to celebrate the holiday season. Either way, we hope you are refreshed and enjoying being back to work ready for an exciting year ahead. Have you made any New Years resolutions around your working life? If so, why not share them with us here? You may motivate someone else to strive to achieve something new!
We have been asking some of our users about their own New Years Resolutions and although many relate to changing careers, many also relate to eating habits at work, career progression and working on personal goals within the working environment.
A recent new story released this week has called for offices to reduce the amount of cake intake for the fear of rotting teeth. What do you feel about stopping birthday cakes, a tradition that has been around for years? Are you hopeful that employees tastes and their mindset can move towards a more healthy treat for our teeth and bodies? We are not so sure.
