Many credit card holders opt to use a balance transfer to consolidate their debt, but this move often leaves people with the same problem they started with: high-interest credit card debt. With a debt consolidation loan, your low fixed rate won’t increase for the life of the loan–compared to just transferring your debt to another card.

Have you been fantasizing about leaving your job behind and going into an entirely new profession—but also worrying about what a big change would mean for your finances?
You’re not alone. “A lot of times people stick with a job out of fear. I’ll ask, ‘What are you afraid of?’ The person might say, ‘I’m afraid I won’t make as much money,’” says Nancy Von Horn, Senior Career Coach at SoFi. “But once you do some digging, you’ll likely find that it’s possible to make that money back.”
It’s true. Changing careers doesn’t have to mean accepting a lower salary. It just means that you have to do some soul-searching and some homework ahead of time. Ready to dive in? Follow this game plan.

Think back to the first job you ever had, and compare it to the job you have now. You can probably see quite an evolution—over the years, you’ve likely gained experience, confidence, and efficiency in the way you approach your role.
Yet when it comes to the job search, many people take the same approach they did when they first entered the professional world. It’s simply easier to default to the strategies you’ve always used. But that mindset could lead to a frustrating, lengthy search.
Instead, think of how many executives look for new jobs. By that point in their career, it’s no longer about casting a wide net—it’s about knowing what they want and confidently going after it. And that often results in a more strategic, efficient, and fruitful search.
Here’s what you can learn from that executive job search mindset and how to apply it to your own job hunt—even if you haven’t made it into the C-suite yet.

Many people apply for a low-interest personal loan to consolidate high-interest credit card debt. These loans can also be used to fund major life purchases or expenses, like home improvements, weddings, unexpected medical expenses, moving expenses, or funerals.
What is a personal loan?
A personal loan is a loan offered by many banks, credit unions, or online personal loan lenders and typically range from $5K-$100K. While many loans specify how the money should be spent, personal loans allow for more flexibility and can be used to cover big expenses or consolidate high-interest debt with a more favorable rate.
Learn more: What is a Personal Loan?
Should I take out a personal loan to pay off my credit cards?
Personal loans can be used for a variety of purposes, but are commonly used to consolidate high-interest credit card debt. When using a personal loan to pay off credit card debt, the loan funding is used to pay off the cards’ outstanding balances. Ideally, the new debt consolidation loans will have a lower interest rate, making payments more manageable or saving the person money from accrued interest. Click here to learn more about the pros and cons of using low interest personal loans to consolidate debt.

How can I calculate my expected monthly payments for a personal loan?
The monthly payment for a personal loan is determined by a variety of factors, including your interest rate, loan amount, loan term, and more. Our Personal Loan Calculator can help you figure out your monthly payments and decide whether applying for a personal loan is the right move for you.
Do personal loans require down payments?
No, unsecured personal loans do not require a down payment, unlike a secured home loan.
Applying for personal loans online or at your financial institution will require meeting your lender’s criteria. Since most personal loans are unsecured (meaning they don’t require collateral) this criteria assures the lender that you can repay the loan. Lenders will typically evaluate your credit score, income, and debt-to-income ratio, among other factors. Lower credit scores could affect your eligibility, terms or rate for a SoFi Personal Loan.
Learn more: Typical Personal Loan Requirements Needed for Approval
Are SoFi Personal Loans fixed interest rate or variable interest rate loans?
SoFi Personal Loans are fixed rate loans. If you like the consistency of knowing exactly what your monthly payments will be over time, you might prefer a fixed rate loan. Also, if you plan to pay your loan back over a longer period of time, say 10 or 20 years, you might prefer to eliminate the risk of interest rate changes over time by selecting a fixed rate loan.
Does SoFi offer secured or unsecured personal loans?
SoFi Personal Loans are unsecured loans. This means that you do not need to provide collateral for the loan.
How much money can I get a personal loan for?
The answer depends on a wide range of factors, which mainly includes the type of lender and your
credit score. A SoFi Personal Loan allows applicants to borrow between $5,000 and $100,000.
Will applying for a personal loan affect my credit?
To check the rates and terms you qualify for, SoFi conducts a soft credit pull that will not affect your credit score. However, if you choose a product and continue your application, we will request your full credit report from one or more credit bureaus, which is considered a hard credit pull.
How long do I need to wait to reapply after my Personal Loan application has been declined?
You will need to wait at least 30 days before re-applying for a Personal Loan with the same borrower(s). You are welcome to retry at any time with a co-borrower, if the previous application was as a single borrower. If you initially applied with a co-borrower, you can retry as a single borrower or with a different co-borrower.
