Quick Question: Job Hoppers, Red Flag or Normal Today?

For the business owners and recruiters here, what’s your take on candidates who switch jobs frequently?

I’ve been actively hiring all year, running countless interviews. We’ve made some great hires, but I keep noticing a pattern: many applicants haven’t stayed at a job for more than a year. (re: their work history)

Is this just a generational trend, or are expectations simply misaligned?

And here’s the real question: Have you ever hired someone with a history of short stints (less than a year each) who ended up thriving long-term on your team?

(Im trying to understand if I'm missing out by not giving them a shot)
