Ask HN: How to avoid career stagnation in my 20s?

So you've had two jobs each for a decent stint. That's a good start getting experiences at multiple workplaces. But it sounds like you know its time to move again, but make this move with purpose and think about which area you would like to specialise in, something that really excites you. I'm sure with all the reading you've done you have a good general idea.

As with mentors at least in my experience they find you. Maybe your mentor will be in your next job!

Dont worry, I think you're doing well :)

Thanks for the feedback! I think specialization is something I'm really interested in. I have really been envious reading random Github repos lately realizing how expert some people really are (infosec, math, distributed systems, etc) that I just haven't had the exposure to do at a crazy scale.

Thanks for the comment!
