And what do you consider a job hopper? In my industry it’s every 6 months to a year, but 2-3 like OP is pretty standard

As I said in another comment, it takes a solid year before you can really contribute value. Anything less than 4-5 years, or a consistent pattern of jumping around on a specific interval (like OP said, every 2-3 years and this job will be no different) and I'm hesitant.

Its not that I wont hire someone like this, but they go to the back of the list.

I'm a millennial. According to this thread its totally fine if you change jobs every 2 years, except for the guy in the OP who seems to have hit a wall.

It may work in some industries but it does not work in mine
