When an interviewer sees slow career progression on your resume, they will immediately want to determine whether this is by your own choice, outside circumstances, or a lack of motivation to create growth. If your career has progressed slower than you wish, you must be honest with the interviewer when discussing this.

"I agree with you that my career progression has been slower than some. You will see that between 2001 and 2009, I worked for the same company without an increase in my job title. The company was too small to offer a promotion as the next level was ownership, and the business wasn't for sale. After that, from 2009 to 2012, I was on leave as I needed to care for my ailing parents. My growth since returning to work has been steady, but those years were a bit of a standstill for me. I am ready to spring into action now and forge ahead in my career."

"Early in my career, I was left to care for an elderly, sick parent. Her care required more of me than expected, so I allowed my career to sit and wait. I am happy with that decision. Spending those last precious moments with a loved one is worth the setback."
