I'd recommend writing down the questions you're asked, going over not only what you said, but how you relayed that answer with friends, or others—make yourself a grid if it helps. Maybe your answers are too short or long? Maybe your experience is beyond where the company is. Also make note of any small take, how you present yourself (attire), how you interact with other staff you meet while there (smiles, stone cold look etc.)—Make a little journal of it as a learning process. Include body language and general responses you're seeing on their end.
It might be worth taking a look at the questions you're asking these employers. I suggest you include some that point toward their decision making process, how they're rating candidates, and where you fit in that scale compared to their needs (on the positive and/or opposite end).
The fact that you're getting to 22 interviews is great. Keep pressing forward, and don't let this beat you down as there will certainly be the 'right' job for you at some point. Stay positive!

[Should I accept a new position if there's a chance I may be moving in less than a year?](

Hi Amber, there are several ways to go about this. You've clearly mapped out, to some extent, possible paths for staying where you are and for moving on. When it comes to work, where we spend MOST of our time, I believe happiness and quality of life are non-negotiable.
There is almost zero risk associated with taking the new job. You never know where it might lead you. 9 months is a decent amount of time for you to establish yourself at a new company. That could open up opportunities like working remotely, etc. As far as your resume—a great opportunity presented itself and you couldn't pass it up. Calculated risks can be really appealing to hiring managers. Bottom line, it's better to move along from a bad situation sooner rather than later.

[When it comes to quitting, is it terrible to leave without giving much notice?](

Hi there! It has been my experience over many years that giving a two-week notice is the expected norm. Three ways that I see this possibly "biting" a candidate who doesn't do so. First off, a bridge is unnecessarily burned with a former employer. Why would someone purposely create that in this ever increasing small and connected world we live in is beyond me. Don't do that to yourself. Secondly, I have seen offers rescinded from the new company to a potential candidate because a two week notice was not given at their former employer. It is character revealing and the thinking is if they did that there, what are they capable of here?
Lastly, even though companies do not give us a two week notice when releasing an individual, it is still a professional courtesy when we leave them. Some people will actually regret not having given one or assume a bit of guilt. Who knows, perhaps your current employer will just show you the door when you give your notice. Should they not, give your two-week notice and ask if they would accept a shorter notice. Never know...Hang in there, you're only two weeks away from a new beginning! - Rick
