Hi Everyone, I am trying to apply for a Technical Support role at Dropbox I’m entering all the required fields but there seems to be an issue, when I hit submit after filling the form, it doesn’t submit and throws error ‘Looks like you left this blank! Please fill out this required field’ when all the fields are entered already (I have checked so many times, and filled the form from scratch several times too). Anyone from Dropbox who can put me in touch with HR or suggest what I should do next?

One's first role may not preclude them from pivoting to another area. It's more that as someone builds up expertise in an area they may be less likely to want to move around. It's good, of course, to consider what the future may hold. There will always be work in the defense sector, but perhaps energy infrastructure might be more interesting in the years ahead.
That’s a really helpful way of putting it, thank you.
I hadn’t thought about the difference between being unable to move and simply becoming less likely to over time.
From your experience, when people do pivot later on, does the original sector matter more, or the skills and responsibility they built early on?
One more bit of context — long term I’d love to work in automotive or motorsport. The defence offer is a Graduate Mechanical Engineering role, whereas the infrastructure role is more systems/operational focused.
I’m conscious of not narrowing myself too early, but equally don’t want to miss building strong mechanical foundations if that’s important for a future move into automotive. Interested to hear whether that distinction really matters in the first couple of years.
