If your interviewer sees what they feel to be a slow career progression on your resume, they will want to determine whether this is by your own choice, outside circumstances, or a lack of motivation to create growth. This question allows you to talk openly and honestly about your career progression with your interviewer.

"I agree with you that my career progression has been slower than some. You will see that between 2010 - 2018, I worked for the same company without an increase in my job title. The company was too small to offer a promotion to me as the next level was ownership and the business wasn't for sale. Since then, I've been on a great path for career progression and am confident that my skills will help me learn and grow into the future here at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals."

"In all honesty, I'm extremely satisfied with how my career has progressed to this point. I am the type of person that likes to master my skills in a job and I love the fact that I've gotten to do that in my current role. Since I'm at that point now, I'm ready to find that next step in my career goals and I can't think of a better place to do that than here at Regeneron."

Before your interview with Regeneron, take some time to reflect on your career progression. If you feel that your career has progressed slower than you wish, don't hesitate to discuss that. The reason behind the slow progression is more important. Conversely, if you are more than satisfied with where you are today, tell your interviewer.
