Positioning Yourself for a Career Change Part 1:
Thinking About Your Professional Identity
This program is the first in a two-part workshop addressing job and career transition. Participants will explore a full trajectory from the initial “I want to make a change,” through identifying potential paths, and on to the tangible pieces of applying for positions.
Program Audience:
• Experienced professionals transitioning into different fields
• Students whose current focus and goals are different than their previous job experience and/or degree might suggest
• Employees seeking a different role in their current industry
• Anyone else considering “shaking things up” in the job-related sphere
The first session will focus on examining and defining your professional trajectory. Participants will explore their goals, skills, and interests and connect the dots between knowledge, experience, and goals. We will work to identify key transferable skills to be capitalized upon in the job search process. Key questions will include:
• I know I want a change, but now what?
• Who am I as a professional? What is important to me in the world of work?
• What other life roles am I balancing, and how do they intersect with my career goals?
• Where have I been, where do I want to go, and how can I get there?
• What resources exist within myself and my environment for helping me plan this path?
