Job Hopper

Read Time: 1 Mins

    A job hopper is a person who works in a job profile for the short term and shifts on another job profile. The pattern of fluctuating interest and changing careers is known as job-hopping.

    Job hoppers are generally dissatisfied with one job and look for better opportunities by changing companies.
