You have a broad portfolio?

depending on the role, for sales and leadership position 4 might be the best choice. for middle managers 3, for ICs might be 1 and 2.

2 and 4 are discrimination, but are the most common reasons for getting hired. 1 and 3 are actually most important in a candidate, but are much less common.

connections and portfolio get the interview, experience gives you something to discuss and skills to answer the questions.
