(UK based) About 18 months ago, poor promotion prospects and minimal yearly wage increases brought me to the point where I realised I was punishing myself waiting for things to improve.

So I polished my LinkedIn profile and made myself visible to recruiters.

I'll soon start a new job with double my current salary and none of the daily grind of the current one. The Great Resignation has served me well.

Congratulations. How long ago did you start looking? Did it take all 18 months to find a new position or did you find some as soon as you started looking?
July 2020 and I had my first interview in August (unsuccessful), then another in April (also unsuccessful) until I was offered the one I'll start soon.
