You might be a good programmer but the companies you worked for might just be terrible at keeping you. Many Software companies are always looking to fire or lay off employees (they often have a quota or stack ranking systems in order to churn a certain percent every 12 months), especially the toxic companies ones. Don't let that make you assume your bad at your job. Try to find a company with a good work culture and High employee retention. Low retention always reflects badly on the company. And make sure to ask the hiring manager how many employees he's lost in the last 12 months. If he looses 2 or more employees per 10 (regardless of who left whom), then it's one of those places that always fires people or makes a bad environment, so watch out.
