How long is the minimum to stay at a job to include in resume?

How much time is the minimum (if there is one) to include the employment in the resume.

I see so many people here left their companies voluntary or involuntary after 5-6 months and I was wondering if you include your employment in the resume and if not how do you explain the gap?

    Anything less than 3 years or about 3 yrs in my opinion makes you look bad! Also y would you hop before 3 ? Unless you are hopping at same levels same job just some extra money

    6 months if you’re making a jump and can explain it reasonable (ie: i joined this team but ultimately left for a better opportunity/wanted to make greater impact/etc), 1-2 years if you’re looking to actually speak to the work you did while on the team - these are minimums

    Always include, even if you stay there for 5 or 6 months. Better to have a 6 month experience at a company than a 6 month gap.

    Just be reasonable, of course, don’t always jump ship after 6 months.
