College grads only: How long did you stay at your first post-college job?

We all have to start somewhere after college, and that usually means starting at an unfulfilling entry-level job.





I graduated college a year ago and have been at my current job for 7 months. I enjoy my job but am curious to see what else is out there. I've heard that you should stay at least two years at a job because it shows loyalty to an employer.

I was there for 2 years and a few months. I agree, stay there a little longer...looks better on resume.
Reply:i was there for a little under 2 years. 7 months isnt really much, id stay there at least another year to build your resume and learn more things.
Reply:I stayed at mine for 1 1/2 years and it was the worst job I've ever had in my life! Don't just quit because you hate it. Look for a job while you are there and quit once you have another offer. The economy is too bad right now to quit without having something in line first.
