Preplanned career paths are rare within startups and scale-ups. When they need to fill a job, founders often don't know exactly what they need, leading to high-growth potential but uncertain job fits.
Professionals should avoid using planned career heuristics and focus on the growth potential. Taking on roles that may not 'fit' preconceived paths can lead to missed growth opportunities in startups and scale-ups.
Before accepting a job offer, professionals should consider if the role aligns with their overall career direction, offers access to new connections, and provides strategic or operational value in the organization.
