What advice would you give to 20 yr old ppl? Your mistakes, regrets, necessary steps, things to avoid How to climb the success ladder fastest?
Keeping jumping companies in your early career years. Every 1-2 years. Only way to increase your package. Then start looking for stable places in your 30's.
True....
To add the suggestion don't shy away to move places between big cities
Stay true to your work. And take on new initiatives irrespective of your role or relevance. Do things that's not expected from you today.
You can keep switching, and that will increase your pay early in the career. But if you really want to get to the top ladder, you will have to stay longer at a company to, and further have a deeper impact
This! After 20 years of work, I can vouch that PPL who reach executive positions are those who stay 3-4 years atleast and hv one promotion to show on each of their jobs, moving sideways will only get some 10-15% more in short term. Long term it's the executive roles that will pay you more. This applies as early as 8-12 years. Not everyone will end up starting up and getting funded so planning a corporate career right is not a bad idea!
Don't be in a hurry to climb the ladder. Cultivating deep knowledge and skills, both technical & political / organizational, take time and experience to build.
If you climb too quickly without building those core skills, you'll falter at the top and suffer. Success is a life-long ongoing journey, not a particular destination.
Domain knowledge , the single best and little slow but proven way to growth . You may grow fastest if you jump companies every 6 months but you will not be considered beyond your 3rd jump . So either by your 3rd Jump reach an extremely good company or work in one good company for 3-5 year , gain domain expertise , spend time upskilling yourself and then jump to a bigger/better role with much higher pay 💰
If you work or not doesn't matter that much. You should be good at selling yourself and filling up forms for review etc etc.

Make manager look good in front of everyone.
Only hard work does not always pay off. It may if you are lucky. But let's not rely on luck. So you need to be a sales man for yourself. A good sale is below quality, Networking, Making long lasting connections, good peoples skills, presentation skills is equally important.
Given the rise of AI, will hard skills be relevant in the next 5-10 years ? I think soft skills will be valued the most in coming years
Start at the top

Be a good person to work with. Show energy, bring positivity, be helpful and have a strong work ethic. Most good career opportunities in your 30s will come through referrals: people who worked with you and can vouch for you to others.
Try different roles and companies early in your career. Figure out what you are good at and what you are interested in. And then double down on it in your late 20s and 30s. As you grow in your career, employability comes with expertise. So discover your career strengths early.
Date with intent in your mid 20s. Get to know what are deal-breakers for you and what you can live with. Your personal/family life and compatibility in your marriage, will have a disproportionate influence even on your professional life & success in your 30s.
If you have the itch or aspiration to start up, no better time than your 20s. You have fewer responsibilities and your opportunity cost (from employment income) is the lowest. It only gets much harder to take that leap of faith in your 30s.
