Career progression can be a touchy subject, especially if you feel your career hasn't progressed as you imagined. However, this question assesses your attitude toward your career progression more than anything. One's professional journey rarely is a straight line. Explore the twists and turns you've taken in your career, whether they be detours or shortcuts. Examine your past five-year career plans and where you had to adjust your projections accordingly. Take into account everything you learned along the way that contributed to your development, growth, and skill sets. Whether they were setbacks or not, your attitude and what you took away from those experiences matter most. 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 few 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."
