I mean I recently had a job interview where I expressed that I love to read and my interviewer was pretty impressed and brought it up later saying “ Since you love to read you must love to learn!”

Which I do love to learn, but I was surprised my love for reading is what signified that for him. Keep in mind the field is completely unrelated to reading. I got the job, so yeah I’d say it helped my career a bit! Lol

Really though, I think reading regularly does help my vocabulary and spelling. I also notice that I read a lot faster than most people (when reading instructions or similar short things) while still being able to digest what I read and I think that comes from practicing that skill all the time by just reading my books. So while it hasn’t directly affected my career, I’m sure it has helped me in a few ways!
