When you are creating your resume, you don’t need to put every random job you’ve ever had. What companies do is they look at your jobs on the resume, and at most call the employer and ask them if you worked for them and how you did at the job.

There is no way for a non government employee to know if you worked other jobs. Keep off any jobs that you worked at for less than 2 years and use every skill you learned as a skill for your resume.

Nothing hurts your resume more than having 3 or 4 jobs in a span of 2 years because it shows you are unreliable.

    They want you to need them. If you don’t need them, you might be thinking independently. You might not go along with it when they want you to do unreasonable things.

      It also takes resources to onboard a new employee and you don’t want to spend that on someone who is gonna bounce in six months.
