How to ace job interviews when switching careers<br />

Millions of people change careers every year. Whereas professionals<br />

may have once worked for the same company for<br />

the majority, if not the entirety, of their careers, nowadays<br />

it’s not uncommon for men and women to change jobs several<br />

times before reaching retirement.<br />

Changing jobs and changing careers are not necessarily the<br />

same thing. Professionals mulling a career change will have<br />

to consider a host of factors that men and women looking<br />

to change jobs may never have to contemplate. Such factors<br />

may include returning to school and lifestyle changes designed<br />

to make living on less income more feasible.<br />

Professionals changing careers may also need to develop a<br />

strategy for handling job interviews. When changing jobs<br />

as opposed to careers, professionals can draw attention to<br />

their resumes, essentially letting their experience speak for<br />

itself. But while experience is often a feather in a job candidate’s<br />

cap, professionals changing careers may need to focus<br />

more on their futures than their pasts when interviewing<br />

for a new career.<br />

• Draw attention to those skills that will apply to your new<br />

career. All of your experience and skills likely wonÕt transfer<br />

to your new career, but that does not mean youÕre<br />

going in with an empty briefcase. Make a list of your most<br />

transferable skills, and develop an interview strategy that<br />

highlights those skills and explains how they can be applied<br />

in both the near future and over the course of your new career.<br />

• Use your contacts to your advantage. Even if much of your<br />

experience wonÕt transfer to your new career, your professional<br />

network might still be valuable to a prospective employer.<br />

The longer you have been working the larger your<br />

professional network likely is, so highlight those contacts in<br />

your interview and illustrate how you can put them to good<br />

use should you be hired.<br />

• Showcase how you have adapted in the past. Much of the<br />

business world moves at a breakneck pace. That pace has<br />

become even faster thanks to advancements in technology<br />

that routinely affect how businesses operate. Even if you<br />

have never before changed careers, that does not mean you<br />

have not adapted to change. Make a list of the changes your<br />

employers have instituted throughout your career, highlighting<br />

how you adapted to those changes and benefitted<br />

from them in their aftermath.<br />

• Remain positive throughout the interview. Even if you are<br />

changing careers because youÕre unhappy and/or unfulfilled<br />

in your present line of work, avoid badmouthing that<br />

industry and your past employers. Doing so will only reflect<br />

negatively on you and raise a red flag with prospective employers.<br />

Instead, explain your reasons for pursuing a new<br />

career path in terms that excite potential employers about<br />

your candidate.<br />

The decision to change careers can induce both excitement<br />

and anxiety. Maintaining a positive attitude and employing<br />

various strategies when interviewing with prospective employers<br />

can help make the transition to a new career go<br />

smoothly.<br />
