Every experience matters. We all bring a variety of expertise and lessons learned from previous roles or industries - and this is a good thing! It allows us to think outside the box and challenge the status quo, and to include perspectives that would otherwise be lost or overlooked. Having a wider breadth of experience and knowledge makes us better testers, and I hope that my talk inspires you to think about how your prior jobs have impacted and improved the way you work in software testing as well.
