Never quit a job without something lined up. One of the first things your interviewer will ask is "What happened at the last job?"


I agree with your first sentence, in the current market.

But an interviewer asking me about my previous job doesn’t worry me. “I left because I decided to take a 6 month sabbatical.” is a perfectly good answer. Don’t like it? Please let me know at the beginning of the interview so I can walk out without wasting my day.
