More than 80% of full-time workers are actively seeking or passively open to new job opportunities, according to a survey released by specialty recruitment firms Accounting Principals and Ajilon.

The survey 26% of respondents are actively seeking new job opportunities and over half, 55% are passively open to new job opportunities.

More than half of respondents, 59%, think one to two years is the appropriate length of time to stay at a new job before looking for a new position. This was highest among respondents aged 26 to 34 at 43.2%, 35 to 54 at 30% and 18 to 25 at 21%.

Approximately 15% of all respondents think you should always be looking for new opportunities.

“With the unemployment rate hitting record lows, the labor market is tighter than ever,” said David Alexander, president of Accounting Principals and Ajilon. “Employees are more receptive to considering inbound job opportunities and the cultural norm for an acceptable length of time to stay at a company has shifted. This means employers need to continually evaluate whether they’re fostering an environment that retains top performers.”

Consistent with expectations, the survey found that salary is the most important factor that respondents consider when deciding to accept a job offer. Additionally, 43% of respondents would be enticed to leave their company if another one offered a better salary or pay.

Aside from being underpaid, cited by 35% of respondents, relationships with colleagues and managers was the second top reason why respondents would quit or start looking. More than half of respondents stated their top reason that keeps them from quitting their job is the loyalty they feel to their team, boss, coworkers or their company. On the flip side, 32% of respondents would quit their job or start trying to find another job due to a bad manager or boss.

Accounting Principals and Ajilon partnered with Allison+Partners' Research+Insights team to survey 1,004 US full-time workers in sales, office and management/professional occupations. The survey was conducted between April 24 and May 8, 2018.
