[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will bite you when it becomes excessive. Eventually, companies won’t hire you when you become a serial job hopper, or at least a lot of doors will close.

[b]I wouldn’t give you a chance at my firm. [/b]4 jobs in 3 years? I’d assume you got let go. [/quote]

Definitely my fear. When i interviewed with my current company they didn't even bring it up as a negative in the interview. It was more like 'wow you've had a lot of really good experiences across the industry' and that was the extent of it. [/quote]

Yeah, maybe in recent times. But the music will stop and you will not get the next job in a worsening economy when many others are competing with you. The long term negative of big jumps is that you are now at $150 with less than 1 year in the job, competing against those with several years of demonstrated loyalty at the same or lessor amount. When the hiring environment switches to value hires instead of scarcity hires (and it will, it always does…1992-1996, 2008-2011, and we are now due)[/quote]

And those were some lean years, especially for those in their 20’s and 50’s…[/quote]
