That is great. If it comes up in future interviews as a question simply say what I mentioned above and you can even allude to the fact that your previous job was 6+yrs (you can say-leaving early was a tough decision, in my previous job I stayed 6+ years, however the role at Deloitte isn’t aligned to my professional goals and this new role is because- and switch completely to a new role discussion. If you don’t dwell on why you are leaving neither will recruiter. Good luck with your new job. I am glad you aren’t settling for a bad fit.

smart

Thanks!

It only matters when you leave that next firm.
Here’s hoping you like that place so much it doesn’t matter at all.
Good luck.

Have you stayed longer in your job before D? The pattern matters here. Otherwise if this isn’t something you do regularly (e.g., stay in a job less than a year) then go for it. The story if needed is simple- the role wasn’t as advertised which became clear once in the job and I am super excited by this new role.

Yes, I was at the previous role for 6+ years
