Maybe before they've had a bunch of short-term jobs, but employers tend 
to look at employment history, and being a 'job hopper' tends to rate a 
prospective employee much lower.  There are costs to bringing someone 
onboard that if they don't think they'll make that back, they're less 
likely to make the investment.
