How to stay relevant
Getting hired is just the beginning. Spending a few years even at a very reputable company doesn’t future-proof your career. Layoffs, pivots, and reorganizations can hit at any time (Amazon being the latest example of this).
The real differentiator? Your story of impact.
Just zoom out for a bit from the daily grind and ask yourself:
- What are you building / solving?
- How are you approaching them?
- How is your work impacting others?
- Could you be doing more?
- What lessons are you carrying forward?
If you’re finding it hard to answer these questions in a fulfilling way, it’s better to take action sooner rather than later; time flies by fast !
