I will say that I am at a very good job now but want to keep my options open later. Hopefully I didn’t close any doors for future opportunities.
If you left a major for a better major, that would be OK. Reason being that since the concern is future employers, you would have left a third-tier major for a second-tier major. The only place to go from there is the last tier, and DAL/FDX should understand that you won't continue to job hop if they hire you.
If the decision was due to personal circumstances, such as geography, you'll likely need to explain that at the interview and also explain how the job you're applying for will be better for you.
But as long as the progression was upward (either obviously, or something you can explain) it should not be a big deal. They want to be sure that you'll stay with them, they don't really care that you jilted their lower-tier competition.
If you did an obvious lateral, or went from DL to NK or something like that... they are going to assume you got canned.
