Recruiters, is it a red flag if a potential candidate’s previous job experience is as follows:
Job 1: 1.5 years
Job 2: 2.5 years
Job 3: 2.5 years

This is excellent actually. Don't listen to boomers who say 3-5 years in every role. This isn't 1987 anymore.

Lmao we don’t believe the grass is greener, it literally is, we get paid to leave. Want us to stick around? Put your money where your mouth is. Otherwise sit down 🪑

I wouldn’t necessarily call it a red flag. It depends on reasons to leave or if Type of roles are too different, or is it because of location etc.

No

Not a recruiter but 🚩 for me. I would at least ask you y you moved around and hope u have a good answer if u get past the screening stage.

Completely depends on the level and role requirements.

Also depends on what the candidate has to say about their experiences and why they moved around. If you’re just starting out and you’re increasing responsibility each time understandable. It is more lucrative for employees to move on quickly to get a better salary, no shame in that.

Eventually, if you’re a team leader or a company culture carrier you need to show tenure IMO.

Completely agree VP. This history is fine for most people OP but once you get to the level where you are building the culture of a company and/or leading the direction of the company I think it’s important to stay longer. These things take time.

Hi everyone!

This isn’t really an interview question but more of an on-boarding question.
Bit of background- I left my job of 3 years in Dec 2021 for a new company. Initially, I thought the company was great but my mind quickly changed. The on-boarding process was horrible, minimal training, thrown onto enterprise project 2 weeks in, over time, and there is no process for anything. I ended up hating my job.

Fast forward to Mid March, I started applying for jobs again but I omitted this role.

Hello all,
I have got an offer from Mastercard at 18.7 lpa as senior database engineer @ level 7.
Is this a fair ask for my position.

My old employer asked me if I wanted to come back to the company as a manager. The pay will likely be much better and the position holds more responsibility than I’ve had before, so overall it would be a step up. The issue is I left the company because of an abusive manager who constantly put me down and made me feel like I wasn’t doing anything right. If I come back I’d be working under her again. I’m torn because the opportunity is great but the stress was awful. Continued in comments…
