Hi, I am currently 1 month into my new job and before that, I spent about 3.5 years in my previous company.
Will there generally be any issue if I apply for a credit card if I have just recently moved jobs? If yes, how long into a job is generally seen as more favourable when applying for credit cards? Is it 3 months (As they generally ask for 3 most recent payslips)?
How Long after Moving to a New Job Should I Apply for a Credit Card?

Do you need a new credit card?
3 most recent payslips
That’s also depends on the banks and how regular you get your pay - forthnighly or monthly.
Banks may ask for X months payslips or Y payslips of Z number of months.
They generally don’t care how long you were with your last job. And likely they expected you have done your “probation” period. So that could be 3-6 months.
It doesn't matter how long it is; just answer the questions in the application correctly. It's long enough to have a payslip sometimes.
