Default Advice on what should I do...

Currently studying part time and working in SME as an accounts executive. So far nothing much, though I don't really like this place and the learning curve is very inconsistent.

I am thinking about making a switch next year, but cannot decide whether to quit after CNY or after my appraisal in March.

One told me that I shouldn't rush into changing a job, why not just wait until March and see what the company gives, be it salary increment or title promotion. After that, then use these to search for another role.

Another told me to press on and remain optimistic, maybe can promote to Assistant Accountant then jump (since now I also assisting my company's accountant in the work too)

I also thought of moving to a bigger firm/MNC as well

What are your thoughts?

You make it sound as if it is up to you to decide when to move to go another job when you feel like quitting.

What makes you think a mnc will offer you a job?

Move. If you keep on waiting for a golden opportunity, you'll be like a sitting duck. If you already have those thoughts, it's time to re-write those resumes and scans those certificates.

Find a new career, while still maintaining the old job. It's a tough market out there with oil barrels at an old time low. So keep on searching for what you like. Remember love your job but never the comoany.

When to move is depend on when you get a better offer, not when you want to.
