    I'm looking to move to London in the coming months, I took a job in IT Support after college an moved to Data Analyst/ Development role in the same company.

    I have about 18 months experience in this team and about 22 months overall. I see a lot of jobs asking for 2 years experience, just wondering with my current experience is this enough or would it be better to hold out for longer?

    18 months is fine.
    When they say 2 years they just mean that they don't want a complete novice fresh out of college.
    If you're right for the position then they're not going to reject you over 6 months.
