Hey, please_help. I'd start by not beating yourself up - everyone has done some variation of this mistake by being very excited during a job interview that's going well and saying yes to everything (often a lowball salary or a team position that you don't want) or not asking many questions. Don't omit the position. Say you quit because they misled you. Say that you know every job includes some amount of drudgery that you're prepared to tackle (right?) but you were pulled into something you didn't sign up for. Often there's scuttlebutt between companies and people know which places treat employees like that anyway. As for leaving, this is entirely your prerogative. I'd say think strategically - is there any purpose or reason for you to stay? If, for example, staying will get you a goal like provide you with X months of runway that you can then use to survive and look for better jobs, then stay. If not, and it's only getting in the way of you finding other jobs, then just quit. And next time just ask what the position they have lined up for you is. The market is in your favor, and you've already gone through a rigorous interview process and survived. I'm sure you'll do great. Good luck!
