I’m hitting the ceiling at Chase in just a year. It’s disappointing, but they simply don’t ship product the way I think they should. I’d love to work at Google doing Product Design. The issue is that I don’t have a ton of YOE on paper. I do feel like I have a rapid growth rate. Does it matter, or do I need more years on the resume? It feels like I’m missing something but not sure what.
It matters to some degree, because regardless of growth rate there are some things you just simply won’t have encountered in a short period regardless of where you’re at. That said, that’s probably more influential on the level you’d get hired in at, rather than if you’re a fit for the job function altogether.
