When I look at a resume, I’m perfectly fine with job-hopping so to speak. The red flag for me is when it’s patterned and usually in the every 12-18 months range. I’ve never seen a hire go well when someone had that history and insisted in interviews that they were looking to stay/settle down/whatever the reason.

Well, I’m all confused. I keep hearing that employers are looking for loyalty, and that job-hoppers make hiring managers nervous. Darned if you do, darned if you don’t.

I do not agree with the mentality, but I have heard the argument: "If they were any good, they would be changing jobs every 2-5 years to expand their skills". Depending on the environment, most companies change (refresh technology) every 2-5 years so that would force some expansion of skills. Another scenario is that you started in one role and changed your role, probably more than once in that 15 years. Sorry for the bad news, hopefully you will find something.
