For anyone reading this who it scares off, by job hopping 3 times in my first 5 years of employment post-college I just under tripled my salary.

Move early move often and keep interviewing while you have a job as it lets you be the pickiest in choosing where you'll have to spend your working hours.

Companies overwhelmingly have no loyalty to you whatsoever (how I wish I was in a co-op so this wouldn't be so), so aggressively pit them against eachother regarding your labor.
