I think it is not just how long you stay at a firm but what your job history says. If you stayed less than 2 years for 3 or more of your last jobs that may label you as a job hopper. However, if you stayed less than 2 years at "one" job it may be because it wasn't a good fit. For example, my last job I was at 5 months before I started my current job. The job prior to the job I was at 5 months, I was at for 3.5 years. The job I was at for 5 months was not a good fit and so that's why I left. If you can explain why you had a short stint somewhere - jobs usually take that into consideration.
This!!!! I’d say generally 2 years is pretty good benchmark but honestly if a job is stealing your joy before then do not wait until 2 years to leave. There will be opportunities where you’ll be able to explain away any concerns about job hopping and the right job will not be worried about a job hopper if they have an environment that they know is worth staying around at (usually the ones worried about job hoppers are ones that have lots of attrition and/or toxic work environments and you don’t want those anyway)
Who decided you need to stick around just to meet some arbitrary timeline? If something’s no longer in your best interest, it’s perfectly okay to move on. Staying somewhere just to say you did X amount of time is outdated thinking. Prioritize your growth and peace leave when you know it’s time.
I’ve had 8 jobs since I graduated in 2016 lol
I hate this industry. It’s the only one where this kind of question is valid. My siblings are in healthcare and move from one hospital to another all the time. It’s normal for them
Nowadays the span gets shorter
I’ve done 2.5 years, 8 months, 3 years and had no issue getting my fourth job. I think the answer is as the long as the next job will hire you it doesn’t rly matter.

2-3 years of purgatory
2 years. I’m interviewing right now and getting a lot of questions about why I am leaving my current job after a little over 1 year and why I left my former job after a year and a half.
See a lot of folks jump ship every 1-2 years lately. I don’t think it’s ideal for both the firm and the Attorney. But here we are in 2025.
You can blame the pandemic for that
On average, millennials move jobs every 2-3 years.
How else can we afford to live in HCOL states? Smh
It really depends on the background and why each move took place. A good recruiter will help you craft a good narrative that you can comfortably discuss during interviews. I know what moves are red flags for me personally so I just don’t reach out to those candidates.
Can you elaborate on the type of moves that are a red flag? Thank you.
