Career progression can be a touchy subject, especially if you feel that your career hasn't progressed in the direction or at the rate you would have preferred. Yet, if that is the case, you'll want to approach your answer by exhibiting emotional intelligence and personal growth. Acknowledge that one's career path is rarely a straight line and often requires a less direct path as you pick up skills or sometimes end up detoured by the wrong opportunities. Provide context to your situation while offering what you've learned along the way and how those lessons have contributed hard or soft skills you otherwise wouldn't have learned. Talk to the interviewer about your career progression and what you would like to see in the future.

"Overall, my career has progressed slower than I would have liked. I have held a couple of positions that didn't offer the growth and learning I was expecting; however, I have bounced back nicely. This particular position would take my career exactly where it should be."
