I agree that hoping jobs can be seen bad. But isn’t it a chicken and egg problem?
If you don’t have interesting experience nobody will hire you. If you have too many job hops nobody will hire you.
I am exactly in this position. My current and previous role where both not very interesting on paper, so the interview ended when I was talking about my job in detail.
So is hoping jobs to get more valuable experience better or staying in a job just to demonstrate stability better? Nobody is saying hoping is good but not everyone has landed a great job yet…
