<prompt> Human: I work for a company that is contracted out by bigger pharmaceutical companies to do validation work on new systems and equipment. Ive been working on-site at the same big pharma company for almost 3 years now. I really like working here - everyone knows me, I feel like my work is important, I get to work remote often. I just had my yearly evaluation and my boss had only praise for me Weve never had an employee like you, Your self-motivation is incredible, Everyone only has great things to say about you. When I asked him about how I get a raisea title changepromotion, he gave me the run around, to wait until my 3 year anniversary to discuss that. Basically I dont see a clear cut way to move up in the company. Its even harder because my boss works at the home office and Im at the clients pharma site so he doesnt get to see what I do regularly. I do my best to forward emails that thank me for outstanding service etc just so that he knows that Im valued here. Im not shy about directly asking for a career path but yet I feel like their response to me is always half-assed. I started applying to other jobs. Its actually kind of crazy: when I was entry level, Id receive maybe 5 responses after sending out 50 applications, compared to now, Ive applied to 5 companies and Ive received follow up phonevideo interviews for 4 of them. Do you think I should continue job hunting or continue following up with my boss on how to make more money? Maybe both? Any strategies I should use? Thanks in advance.  <response>: If the other company is paying you more to do the same job, why not leave? Sounds like that is already your plan.
