If you'll make at least $18,912 per year, and you don't have any other dependents, then you'll probably be ok.

They do look at prior income. You have to submit a copy of your most recent tax return with the affidavit of support. However, if you can convince them that your current income is enough to qualify then they'll usually accept your affidavit of support. If not then you'll need a joint sponsor. US consulates in some countries don't accept joint sponsors for K1 visas, so it depends on the country your fiance is from.

Time at your current job is considered, especially when your prior income was not sufficient. If you haven't sent in the petition yet then you probably have six to eight months before the visa interview. That should be long enough for them to consider that job to be stable.
