Ep75: Career change at 45. It is POSSIBLE with LinkedIn.
In this episode, Mei Phing discusses why LinkedIn can be a powerful tool for career change, as demonstrated by a client who transitioned from the struggling travel industry to a quality assurance role in a different industry by focusing on transferable skills and optimizing her LinkedIn profile.
Key Highlights
📈 LinkedIn can be a valuable tool for career change, especially during challenging times like the pandemic. It offers opportunities to connect with new industries and job openings.
🎯 Overcoming mindset blocks is crucial for success. Embracing a growth mindset and being open to new possibilities can lead to career growth and new opportunities.
🤝 Networking and building a strong online presence through LinkedIn are essential for job seekers. Optimizing your LinkedIn profile and using effective networking strategies can attract potential employers and increase job prospects.
💼 Transferable skills are key when changing industries. Identifying and highlighting skills that can be applied in different contexts can make a candidate stand out and increase their chances of success.
📚 The foundation of a successful job search lies in career clarity, resume optimization, LinkedIn profile development, and effective networking strategies. These foundational elements need to be mastered before moving on to interview preparation.
💪 The right mindset and a focus on growth and improvement can make a significant difference in a career transition. Being proactive, investing in self-improvement, and staying positive can lead to successful career changes.
