After graduating college, I worked in a healthcare HR role for 8 months and then decided that industry is not for me. Now I have been in my new role for 6 months in a telecom HR role and am looking to leave as I want to relocate due to the cost of living being too high in the area.
This would be two jobs back to back that I have been in less than a year each. Is that a huge red flag for employers? When is it seen as job hopping prone vs. just chalking it up to being early in someone’s career?

Hey everyone. I have been thinking about pursuing a career in cyber security for some time now. The only thing is I have no coding experience and since I got out of college I have been working on the audit side at a regional firm, but I feel like I’ve hit a ceiling and not going anywhere. There are also times when I just get bored and have lost interest in financial audits.

Genuinely looking for insights. Home grown consultant (SM3) and don’t see myself doing this forever. While a ton of exit opportunities exist, H1-B transfer seems to the biggest road block (approved I-140; not looking for other consulting options; open to FAANG and healthcare industry roles) Solid Openings / roles that are appropriate for my experience have stayed away from even taking the next step given the immigration situation. How have folks dealt with this? Any tips or advise?
