Summary

Stay relevant by cultivating an adaptable, coachable, and curious mindset.

Remaining relevant as your career matures is imperative, but watch out for a “stuck mindset” that clings to redundant approaches. In today’s jobscape, “potential trumps experience,” so treat your résumé not just as a record of your experience but as a proposal that showcases your willingness to learn, adapt, and solve problems. Do your homework on the recruiter’s industry, and list relevant classes you’ve attended or books you’ve read that address its challenges.

Stay relevant by incubating the traits of a learning mindset:

  • Coachability — Employers are more interested in hiring candidates with the greatest potential to learn than those with years of experience. To become more coachable, list your shortcomings. Which of those items could lead to success if you worked on it? Stay receptive to feedback, remembering there’s always more to learn, and nurture the self-belief that you can improve. Strengthen your coachability by asking for help — from a friend, mentor, younger person, or hired professional — when learning a new skill.
  • Adaptability
