Show notes

In today’s episode I am talking about how to move industry and earn more, without the traditional industry experience.A lot of people I talk to at the moment are discussing moving industries, so I am really excited to share my insights and tips on this topic with you.It may seem intimidating entering a new industry and I know a lot of people have reservations, but there are things you can do to avoid having to start at the bottom or take a pay cut.Why do so many of us question whether an industry change will be possible for us? We see and hear of success stories from people who switched industry all the time, in fact many of my past guests have done just that.Firstly we need to pay attention to where we get our information from, a recruiter may be less encouraging of you moving industry because it makes their job a little trickier – that doesn’t make it impossible.We are also seeing a big industry shift in the way experience is viewed – the priority is now on whether a candidate has the ability to excel in a role, not necessarily experience. This is where you need to focus if wanting to switch industry.Initially you need to identify your transferable skills, and then take it that one step further and focus on the results. By focusing on the results you achieved through that skill set, and demonstrating how these results are similar to the results the hiring company are looking for, it makes it clear as to how you would add value in that role.Something I also see clients overlook is the value of their perspective – by coming from a different industry you are bringing a whole new perspective and outlook that can be incredibly useful in problem solving.So what next?1. Research – immerse yourself in the industry, identify gaps of knowledge and work to fill them2. Connect the dots – identify the skills, results and perspective you have, and clearly show that they are invaluable in the roleAs always, if you want any support with how to position yourself for a new role, just get in touch.I will also be jumping on LinkedIn live each Wednesday at 12 noon (UK time) for regular “Career Conversations”, so tune in for future streams!Other episodes you may enjoy:Episode 206: How To Validate Your Career Change Ideas & Avoid Making The Wrong MoveEpisode 192: How To Get A Six Figure Salary Increase During Your Career Change With Scott BarlowTHIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE CAREER CLARITY ACCELERATORIf you are looking for support with finding career clarity so you can relaunch your career with confidence, join this program >> https://www.careerchangemakers.com/ccaEnjoying the show?
