Should I hand my notice in before securing another job

Generally, it’s good to ensure you have secured your next placement before handing in your notice to your current role. This allows you the security should anything fall through during the application process. But all situations are different. Perhaps you’re prepared for a break in between roles, in which case you might want to hand your notice in earlier. Ultimately, you should think about your current situation and plan around it.

What is the best way to hand in my notice?

You want to make sure you check your contract to see your notice period – make sure you notify your line manager with plenty of time and have an honest discussion. Try not to burn bridges, thank them for their guidance during your tenure. If you need to speak to HR about anything, be sure to bring it up in your exit interview.

How can I be sure you have my best interests if you are representing more than just me for this process?

As consultants at Frazer Jones, it is integral to us that we have no bias towards any candidates. We aim to place you and other candidates in roles that are best suited to you and the client. This way, all candidates are on a level playing field.

What do I do if I know I am being underpaid?

Carry out some market research by viewing salary guides and don’t be shy when speak to your colleagues about salaries. If you find that you’re being underpaid, make a case to your manager about the work that you currently do and have done and show them the salary of roles that are similar to yours. You can use our Salary Guides to help during your research.

What is the best way to ask for a pay rise

Asking for a pay rise can seem like a daunting task, but the payoff can be worth it. Speak to your manager about your intentions of asking for a pay rise and arrange a meeting. Before this meeting takes place, you should prepare a list of your successes and achievements in your current role to back up your request. To support you further, do some market research to see what others on your level are being paid for the amount of work you’re doing. View our salary guides as a starting point to pull your case together. Good luck!
