Just over half of American HR professionals (51 per cent) categorise an employee who changes their job every year as a job hopper.A third (34 per cent) would also put the same label on those changing jobs every two years, according to a study by the US Society for Human Resource Management.
But the survey found markedly differing views among employees with only a fifth (19 per cent) considering that a job change every 12 months constitutes job hopping.
The findings are based on responses from 638 randomly selected society members and 347 job seekers.
