There are huge regional differences in what is okay and what isn&#x27;t in changing jobs. I some European countries you&#x27;re considered a job hopper if you change jobs every 2 years.  (Industry matters too, for instance the gaming industry is very dynamic anf it&#x27;s not odd to jump around their, while at financial services it is).<p>Bottom line; everyone can get away with a unfortunate career move. As long as you can explain why you took the job (whay you expected) and why that didn&#x27;t work out. But if this happens more often, future empoyers will suspect there&#x27;s something &#x27;wrong&#x27; with you if you can&#x27;t seem too be happy and productive in a place for a longer time.
