I’ve interviewed with three companies, all of which took me to third stage. Despite giving incredible praise, all three declined because they fear I’m too ambitious or want to be running my own business (I genuinely don’t). They ask ‘what’s the vision?’ but it feels like a trick question because when I answer they question if I’m employable. What should I respond, that I have no vision and I’m happy to tick along?

Managers, what am I missing? Do I really need to act like I have no ideas/goals?

Coming out of UG, I accepted my first job b/c I thought I had to based on status of other interviews. I ended up quitting after 8 weeks in favor of an opportunity I perceived to be better, but took longer to get. 7 months into the new gig, I am NOT happy. Considering this is technically my second job out of school, how long should I stick around before trying to leave without looking like a total scumbag opportunist?
