- Why did you get into the field? What did you focus on at first?
To build the future.
- What are you doing at your job? Is it everything you dreamed of and more?
No. I need to get back to my principles
- How did you break that first-job barrier?
By presenting myself as a low cost low risk gamble
- What were you doing before this?
See below
- Any tips for the rest of us?
I leave my education off my resume. I've been at this over 20 years and have a hard 10 year cliff when it comes to talking about things.
I consider the knowledge I left the University with as rather useless unless someone continues the practice.
If the employer cares about prestige and pedigree then leave the room, rudely if you want.
Engaging with the now is the crucial determinant of empowering the future. If the competence signalling is past laurels than you're going to get stagnating structure. I've seen it. Just leave. Aspirational stricture through institutional structure is a waste of human effort.

What do you care about? That's the main question. There's no easy answer. But once you can get to it let that drive and centralize your decisions.

Really that's all I can give you.
