Have you ever left a job not long after starting? If so, why

I took the best offer I could get in the job market 3 months ago when things were gloomy.. I'm arguably getting paid close to market salary. But I see way better opportunities opening up recently and I badly want to apply. I'm afraid having such a short tenure in a company will not look good on my resume. Am I over thinking?

So, my current job is something I don't like. I don't enjoy it as it is almost stagnant. There's no work, but there's still this anxiety of work. The company doesn't know what it is doing, so even I have no work that I can do. This doesn't align with my career goals and I feel like every day I spend in this company, I'm literally destroying my career in long term. I want to resign, but the market is bad, specially for product roles. But I can't work here anymore. What should I do?

Why switch? Why not switch? What were the motivations that you had when you thought of switching and whether the result was favourable to you or not?

Context: I am 22 years old with a BBA degree from a tier 1 college. After college, worked as intern with a few online marketing startups for around 4-5 months, Post that joined a fintech company as an intern setting up a new vertical that they're building( part of first few hires). I've worked here for around 6 months as an intern and now that my internship is coming to an end I've been told that full time conversion is off the table but they'll gladly extend my internship period. Reason: performace not good enough. I feel purely from an opportunity standpoint continuing here would be great for me as there's a lot of scope for learning and growth however what makes me anxious is the fact that this wouldn't reflect well in my CV and hence would probably be a potential bottleneck in the future wrt higher education or switching companies for that matter.

So this past month has been a hell of roller coaster ride. I was desparately looking for job in March and found a great org and joined it on May end. Now here I am realising most of my work is very clerical/commercial in nature. Now a great opportunity opened up in my prev org and my ex manager referred me there and its a great IT implementation role. This will help me in pivoting to IT and if I learn some coding I can even get into development. Meanwhile I have also received a MS admit from Europe and Loan is also sanctioned for the same. I intend to join the prev role as it would help me boost my career prospects but I am not able to decide which reason to give to my current employer for leaving? Should I tell the truth or lie about going for MS? Btw PF account is yet to be generated for new employer. Need your help and opinions guys

If frequent job switch does matter then how frequent? Every 6 months is frequent or every 1 year is frequent? What other criteria do you also see?

When I was job hunting a few months back, I told the head hunter that a couple of companies she proposed was not something I believed in, in the nicest way possible. Maybe a dick move, idk. She told me it’ll be impossible for me to find a job in this market if this was my attitude. After that, a month later, she ghosted me when I asked her if she has any leads. I spoke to a few friends and they said it’s a good thing to want to truly believe in what the company does and few told me it didn’t matter. To me it does, because I have always worked in very early startups and I see my time also as an investment. And not to mention, early stage startups are tedious to work in. You lose your motivation if you don’t feel like you’re contributing to a great extent in multiple areas. What’s your take on it? Is it alright as long as you get the money in your account?

Was laid off, took a pay cut to join this (maybe desperation took better of me) Now the workload is too much, the founder cracks disrespectful jokes, and vibes are just too off I am not enjoying the work I was detesting going to work the first Monday itself 😔 This is also not aligned to how I imagined my life, off the track really Should I resign?

Should I take up a job offer which offers me a peace of mind but not much of a hike or stay within the current organisation get the appraisal which is somewhat similar to the new offer. Early in my career the main reason I’m even considering the job offer is that the current organisation the work culture has gone to $#! . It’s basically working on favouritism, unrealistic targets and no work life balance at all.

I am in a company where people are increasingly becoming less cooperative and ego has increased with stiff competition around. I have been in this company for 1 year they have been promising for IPO but its all in loss since 2019. Tech is not latest Monolith with Java-Sping-boot and Angular.
