Do you apply for jobs when you have a good job?

 

It has been said that employer like to hire someone who already has a job, they feel that would give them confidence of a good hire, also you be in a strong position to negotiate, you are not desperate, also it is a good way to evaluate your skills and your weakness points to improve, but this might have a backlash if your employer find about that and they might terminate you, so remember "Loose lips sink ships" so don't share it with your coworkers to avoid rumors and they might be looking for your position.

Be loyal to your current employer schedule interviews at your own free time not work hours, don't use one of your current employer as reference.

Don't use the company computer, Internet, fax machine, or phone in your job search. Most companies track your Internet usage so anything related to your job search may raise suspicions, “Your company may also track your phone use so it's best if you use your personal cell phone in your job search, focus on your current job while at job that's an ethic and part of your professional credibility which you should not lose it, your reputation in market can fly among various employers so quick and if negative it can burn your cards.

Finally, if you believe you are really happy with where you are and that your employer is a great employer to work for then you may slow your search but never quit complete search, you should never completely stop looking for new opportunities.
