There needs to be a community for career changers.
I'm finding it extremely difficult to find a way to change my career and most advice online is not tailored to this.
A recruiting service for matching skilled, quality people who are looking to change careers with open-minded employers who are willing to consider these non-traditional applicants who may not have the standard background of X years experience in Y would be a good idea.
- abhinovb 12y agoNoted. I understand your concern because I was in a similar situation an year ago.
- cylinder 12y agoThere's a lot of infrastructure now for those looking to change into tech, web development, startups etc. But beyond that there are many people looking to go from say, Accounting -> Consulting, or Lawyer -> Strategy, etc etc and can't figure out how to pull it off and how to get past the walled garden of corporate HR.
- abhinovb 12y agoHmm, interesting problem. I was a telecom engineer but got into a data analyst research position.
