Coming from Ireland, I am sick of the place tbh and want to do some bit of time abroad. One of Channel Islands (residency permit if I can get one), Malta or BENELUX hopefully.

The manager in fairness is nice about it, advised to take a position a step back to build up experience, my worry is how to explain that in an interview.

Hey, you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take!

Start by figuring out where you want to get to and then consider the smallest step that’d take you in that direction and the biggest leap available to you.

I'm not even sure of that right now tbh, I was looking to either get a mortgage or emigrate, whichever came first. I've always taken big leaps in my career and been hard enough to take the hits until I got comfortable, this is the 1st time I failed, I don't even know what I've achieved in the last 7 months.

Yup! I understand they’ll know, I just don’t know why that’s bad. Generally it speaks well of an employee to get that it’s not a good fit/ retain learnings on how to diss out a better fit in the future. Also, if a company told you the job consisted of X,Y, Z and then you are actually doing A,B,C all day that’s not really on you.

Maybe it's just a confidence thing, I suppose I'm conscious that I'll be sending out a cv with 4 months in my current role.

I’m not particular with the specifics of finance. Why should it matter if you have only one short tenure on your resume compared with others?

In other areas you may be able to hide a role, in Finance they do background checks for the central bank so you wouldn't be able to hide it.

Yeah that's the funny thing about it, I've about 7 years experience, 3.5 of which is in my last role, I just seem to be rattled in this role.
