No 'job hoppers' is the painful one for me. I don't think I've managed to stay at a job longer than 2 years but I only left one for a pay raise. The rest were either short term contracts or random layoffs around the 2 year mark.

Yeah it was a big signal, they wanted to see: 1. career progression at the same job 2. spending enough time somewhere to see more and else more specialization It's not the end of the world but just a weakness on your resume you have to acknowledge and then work on. Play to your strengths and try to work around your weaknesses. It's way better than getting rejected from 300 jobs and not knowing why and feeling like the world is against you like you see on Reddit a lot haha.
