A reader wants to know how many job changes on the resume is too many these days? Is anyone stay at a job for a certain length of time anymore or is okay to jump at any opportunity? When hiring do you look at how long someone was at their prior jobs?
As the hiring partner for my firm, you get one move for a tenure of less than 18 months and the opportunity to explain why it was the firm's fault (and sometimes it is). More than one move tells me that you have no intention of staying.
I agree, as one of the hiring managers at my firm if an applicant has multiple job changes in a few years span, the applicant faces an uphill battle.
However, CNBC is reporting that the typical worker who changed jobs between April 2021 and March 2022 saw earnings jump by 9.7%, while the typical worker who stayed saw wages fall 1.7% after inflation.
I suppose sometimes it pays to change jobs.
It's hard to define a precise rule here. I don't fault people for moving jobs. However, when someone only lasts 5 months in one job, then 8 months in another, that's a huge red flag. If you have a few years at one then a few more years at another then I see no problem. I agree with 10:56 in that maybe one short tenure could be excusable if it was to jump at an opportunity that came up or to jump from a toxic ship, but you better be ready to talk about why you left so quickly in an interview (or even your cover letter to get ahead of that red flag).
11:09 here again. To answer the original question posed by our blog overlords, yes, I absolutely look at how long someone was at prior jobs. But I try not to penalize job moves unless it looks like you're a habitual job-switcher.
Habitually!
Can someone refer this link to the OBC? They turnover quicker than my ex-wife did to a compliment from a drunk guy at a bar

Nasty divorce?
11:50 back, yes 11:54, I was married for about 18 months and the divorce took a little over 3 years, I still cannot believe it, 3 years! Wow I hate family court, it seems everything is designed to prolong and aggravate people
Do you judge staff the same as attorneys?
7:12 – yes
The Ronaldo article is just weird – there was an error and it was caught before anything could actually come of it. Maybe this is just news because it is a high profile subject?
High profile subject in high profile case involving a judge that even LA news stations know is no legal scholar.
This is why……The best way to avoid lying to the Feds. Don't talk to the Feds.
Except to say: "Lawyer."
"Again, I said Lawyer."
But what happens when your lawyer goes on TV and becomes a material fact witness?
Truth. That's why we shut out mouths. Except to say "Lawyer" and "Phone Call".
Yes, law enforcement regularly threatens people who ask for their lawyer and then keep their lawyer from being able to talk to the person who asked for their lawyer. Get a clue. Great way to get a conviction.
^^^^ Fed Alert
So we don't ask for one? We just answer their questions and cooperate to the greatest degree? Cause 5k1.1 works so well. LMAO!
OK, Ray Epps.
Ivanka and Jared kept a private email server in the white house. Jared's disaster at 666 5th Ave mysteriously got funded after the trump white house advocated the blockade of Qatar. After the Qatari's funded the 666 debacle, the blockade went away. Anyways…
