Recruiter's comment on varied CV sparks career rethink

LinkedIn user Harshavardhan T. shared a recruiter's comment that his CV spanning advertising, digital media, sports streaming, hyperlocal commerce, news, OTT, edtech, and fintech was the 'most unusual' seen.

A recruiter questioned Harshavardhan's frequent industry changes, prompting him to reflect on his career path.

Harshavardhan realized he was drawn to businesses undergoing transformation, not industry shifts, citing his move from Scootsy during Swiggy acquisition to lead Indian Express Digital.

He argues that the ability to lead through change is more valuable than industry-specific experience, reshaping how he views talent.
