Career Changers
For professionals moving into a new industry or function.
Context
What's actually going on.
A career change fails on paper long before it fails in an interview. A reader scanning your resume sees the industry you are leaving, not the one you are entering.
The work is translation: expressing what you have done in the vocabulary and priorities of the field you are moving into, and making the logic of the move explicit rather than leaving it to be guessed.
Common Problems
What typically goes wrong.
- 01
Experience described in the wrong vocabulary
The same work has different names in different sectors. Unfamiliar terminology reads as an unfamiliar candidate.
- 02
The reason for the change is missing
Without a stated rationale, a reader supplies their own — usually that something did not work out.
- 03
Transferable skills left implicit
Hiring managers rarely do the translation work for you. The connection has to be made on the page.
Our Approach
How we handle it.
- 01We map your existing experience against the requirements and language of your target field.
- 02We restructure the resume so transferable evidence leads and sector-specific detail supports.
- 03We use the cover letter to state the rationale for the transition directly and confidently.
