One's career progression rarely follows a linear path; for some, that can be a touchy subject, especially if your career hasn't progressed as well as you would have liked. When this is the case, it's worthwhile determining how you would contextualize those detours and what valuable lessons you learned that you've applied toward your professional growth. Talk to the interviewer about your career progression and what you would like to see in the future.
