Companies often emphasize a growth mindset but I’ve noticed candidates rarely give concrete examples of how they practice it. I’m trying to demonstrate adaptability and learning in tangible ways and need advice

On your resume, your bullets under a job can say things like, “Developed XX skills by [doing XYZ] to meet growing customer demand, leading to delivering YYY and resulting in [ZZZ impact].

For interviews, prepare stories along these lines that expand upon the details. Be prepared to talk about the drivers of the growth such as personal continuous improvement and learning, identifying industry trends and needing to keep up with them, seeing customer demand or trends, etc.

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.

I am not so much worried about getting sued, but about my current employer tanking my reputation if I leave and break the non compete.
