This is true. That is what some career counselors say. You've got to be
careful.
I once interviewed for a contact job, where I passed the first interview
with flying colors, but the second interview was conducted by a real
jerk (a sales guy). He asked me why I had so many jobs on my resume.
(Duh I was a contractor and this is what I do). Some places they will
ask you some questions or give you a non-technical test to weed out the
head cases.
