As a mid-career professional, you’re more than just your resume. Your experience, wisdom, and strategic thinking set you apart. However, to truly stand out, consider adopting a product mindset. This means defining, articulating, and marketing your value in a mission-critical way. It involves focusing on delivering niche solutions and being data-driven. Avoid common mistakes such as focusing solely on roles and responsibilities or telling war stories. Instead, prepare thoroughly, focus on your deliverables, and present compelling evidence that you’re the right person for the job. Remember, you’re not just an employee, you are the solution.
