Finding a job while I already have one?

The hardest thing about looking for a job when you're unemployed is the thought of what you're going to do if the money runs out. It's really not easy to find a job when you already have one. Of course you want to keep the details from everyone including your coworkers, because some employers will immediately terminate upon finding out you're preparing to leave. They seem to do this to prevent attitude contagion. Put aside as much money as you can as a buffer in case this happens, and keep doing what you're doing. Maybe an HR manager here and there will stay late, so it shouldn't hurt to explain your situation ("I am currently employed") and ask if they would mind a non-traditional interview time. Good luck and cheers for moving forward.
