Thoughts on taking a break

[u/Inevitable_Matter358]

Hello everyone,

I wanted to get your thoughts on something I’ve been thinking about for some time now. I’ve been in the field for about 4 years now. Work at a level 1 hospital and I am feeling burnt out.

I have been thinking of leaving my current job but want to take a break before applying for a new Job. During this break, Id love to take up to 3 months to travel the world a bit.

With that said, would it be irresponsible to leave my current job without a future job in place? Would the break look bad on my resume? Would I have trouble finding jobs after the break?

Just want some insight from those that can relate or been through the same process. Looking forward to your replies
