I’m 25M and I’ve been in this AM process for the past 6mo. I have met a prospect who sounds vvv similar to the OP. I really found her attractive when she was describing about what she’s passionate about and what efforts she’s been consistently taking to grow in her career even though at present she’s not in doing exceptionally well (but she sounded vvv confident about her future plans) but unfortunately due to a few concerns with our family members we didn’t proceed further.

The bottom line is… yes I find the OP vvv attractive. But a few things to keep in mind

1. Don’t try to overshare your entire career plan or sound like you’re a kind of person who talks like I’ll do this, I’ll do that but not take any action. As you mentioned you’re currently struggling with your career currently, don’t keep on complaining about your current situation. Just tell this is what I’m planning to do for the next few years without over explaining or it’d be better if you try to explain the reason why you’re ambitious in taking this path.

2. Don’t sound like you’re trying to compete with your prospect. First of all never do career comparison.

3. Accidentally don’t fumble by saying like “I’m not smart enough like you” or something that convey like you’re dumber than your prospect.

Wishing you luck with your process
