Stuck in a Role You Hate? How to execute a Career Pivot in Q1
Did you promise yourself you'd quit your job this year? Here is how to translate your past experience into a new career path without starting from zero.
The Resolution: "I Quit"
It is January 8th. You are back at work, and you already want to leave. You made a resolution to change industries, but you feel stuck because your experience doesn't match the new roles you want.
Don't let Imposter Syndrome stop you. You have transferable skills; you just aren't phrasing them correctly.The Translation Problem
Recruiters speak different languages in different industries. * Retail: "Customer Service" * Tech: "Client Success Management"
If you put "Customer Service" on a Tech resume, you get ignored. You need to translate your history.
