I haven't played many final fantasy games since about 8. My favorite is ff5 with the job system, are there any newer games that are similar to that?

Probably depends on what parts of FFV you enjoyed really. If the ability to customise every character in your party was the selling point, Final Fantasy X-2 might be worth trying. It also has a job system and characters can change jobs during battle as well.

Final Fantasy XII also had a pretty flexible system where you could assign classes to each character, and then customise the skills they each had. The definitive release of the game which is what you'd be getting if you buy it for a modern console has the ability to change all this out and redo it easily if you don't like the path you've taken.
