How often are recruiters seeing people applying to jobs outside their industry? Is it always going to be a lateral move or demotion?

A lot more now than they used to be, both lateral and demotions. People are desperate, and I can't blame them given the almost daily announcements of mass layoffs. A lot of candidates are using the spray and pray approach to job hunting.

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?
