Current Employer: 2 years and seven months
Previous Employer: 11 months Only had two jobs. I read a report a while back that says people normally change every few years, so it'd be interesting to see some figures around here.

kermey,
Reason for the question ??? Just a tail spin of the thread regarding casual Vs fulltime Many were swaying towards full time and its benefits Just thought i see what people are actually working with employers before moving on Hence this question |

I am on my 6th different employer in the last 12 months. That is the nature of the type of work I do, mostly shutdown type stuff, so you have to follow the work!

Current Employer 5 months, permanent.
Previous to that, temp work off and on for multiple agencies in multiple offices for about 5 years. Previous to that, 2 years permanent. Previous to that, about 1.5yrs temping. Previous to that, about 1.5 years permanent. Previous to that, a few months temping. Previous to that, 12 months permanent (traineeship so was always going to end). As you can see, permanent doesn't always mean, well, permanent!

I work two jobs, my fulltime one I have just ticked over 3 years with the current one, and my casual one I am just about to come up on 4 years.
If working for yourself counts I'm almost ready to start the clock on that one too.
