My new response to being asked about job hopping.

I recently had an interview where one of the interviewers said they were concerned that I was a habitual. For some background, I am on my 4th job out of college in almost ten years and the jobs looked like this:

2012 - design engineer 2015 - project engineer 2017 - sales engineer 2021 - sr sales engineer (moved 1000 miles to be closer to wife's family)

New job I am interviewing for would be a 30% bump in base and potential 70% bump in ote comp so it was a no brainer to interview for it.

My response that I gave was every job up until this last one was a very different job and I only took this last one to move with my wife. I thought that was an ok response but after a beer this evening I came to the realization that if I hadn't hopped jobs and take the path that I did, I would hardly be qualified for this new job and probably wouldn't even get an interview.

So that's my new answer. If I didn't take the path I did you wouldn't even be interviewing me right now. I wouldn't have the experience that would make me a good candidate.

Wish I thought of it when asked but I will be ready for next time!

Now whether I get the job is another story. I think they are getting cold feet since I was the first person they interviewed with but my background fits the position kind of perfectly. Now they are saying they want to interview a couple internal people first but who knows. They can't string me along forever.

Typed this out on my phone so there may be some typos.
