Job hopping still career limiting
Although the notion of loyalty to a company has changed dramatically over the past decade, 89% of hiring managers from SA’s leading companies polled in a recent survey say that perceived job-hopping will hurt a candidate’s chances of landing a position. The survey, conducted by South African search firm Jack Hammer Executive Headhunters, found that almost 90% of HR managers also say candidates would have to provide a very good explanation for repeated instances of short tenure at the companies they worked for.
