With regard to career projects, an Agile methodology is the approach of developing the result in frequent iterations based on the requirements that evolve based on the results of previous iterations.
In Agile career projects, the results of each iteration shall be used to setup objectives for other iterations. So, instead of one huge and costly project without clear understanding of its outcome, the Agile methodology offers many smaller trials and, sometimes, fails in order to clarify objectives while on the way.
Let's add some real life example; just the name is changed to preserve the privacy. Meet Mary, who decided to become an accountant. She was enrolled into the accounting program at the college. After the first semester, she started looking for a job of an entry-level bookkeeper. Mary started volunteering as a bookkeeper to test whether accounting is her vocation. She put her hands on something she dreamed about and had a feeling whether she wants to continue or do something that in the Agile methodology is called "pivot."
Later, Mary was promoted to a managerial position and changed her college major. In 4 years, she had a 4-year degree, 3 years of experience and an actual job.
The Agile methodology is characterized by frequent reassessment and adaptation of previous objectives. Instead of once-defined requirements in the Waterfall model, the Agile methodology encourages continuous re-definition based on continuous feedback. This feature makes the Agile methodology instrumental in those developments that are as inherently unpredictable as most of the career projects are.
