Assuming some are obviously capped length internships it is not a big deal. But if they are 5 full time jobs my first question in the interview would be 'what are you looking for that you haven't found yet?'

They said

>It's 5 positions excluding internships

So, no, some aren't "obviously capped length internships."

The problem is, 3.5 years at the current place, 1.5 years at a failed startup, which leaves 3 jobs for the remaining 3 years (none of which they say are 1 year). And they don't mention that FAANG is where they are currently at, and obviously it's not the 1.5 year job, which means it's stuck in the 6 jobs over 3 year area. So, it's a sub-1 year FAANG role. =/

Sorry, I think I worded my initial post badly. 3.5 years is at FAANG, that's my current role. I'm close to a senior promo. Before that, failed startup, and before that, shorter stints as a student. I've already been made aware in this thread that this history needs to be sold in a much, much better way.
