Are you considering a career transition and want to improve your chances of success?
If your answer is yes, you need to be strategic with your moves.
In a recent People in Transition podcast, career coach and executive search consultant Gina Riley shared some valuable insights about changing careers.
Here are some key takeaways:
– When networking, focus on getting to know people and building trust rather than just trying to get something from them.
– Focus on gaining diverse experience, even if it means changing jobs. This can help you build a better-rounded career and open up new opportunities.
– During interviews, use the SOAR method – Situation, Obstacles, Action, and Results – to answer questions effectively.
– Don’t forget to communicate your unique strengths clearly and concisely.
Remember, you are in charge of your career. Take ownership of the planning process, and you’ll be well on your way to success.
