QUESTION 13 OF 29

Have you progressed in your career as you have expected?

Career progression can be a touchy subject, especially if you feel that your career hasn't progressed as well as you would have liked. Talk to the interviewer about your career progression and what you would like to see in the future.

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

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

I have made progress given the situation. I wanted to experience working in local public health to understand and witness how the workings of local public health have on the community. I have research experience that helps me expand on my critical thinking and problem-solving.

Marcie's Feedback

It's great that you've made progress in your career. Have you progressed as much as you'd hoped? What else do you aspire to do? Consider starting your response stronger; something like: 'I am very pleased with the progress I've made in my career so far.' The interviewer will be impressed that you've gained experience in both the areas of research and local public health. Good job!
