2.Be ready to talk up your portable skills."What have you done well that a different type of employer might be able to use?" asks Don Marotto, a managing director at career development firm Impact Group who often counsels executive career changers. "If you've succeeded in sales, customer service, or business analysis in any industry, you can do it almost anywhere else."
2.大力推銷 “通用技能”：職業(yè)發(fā)展咨詢公司Impact Group總經(jīng)理唐-馬羅托經(jīng)常為有意改行的高管提供建議。他問他們：“你擅長(zhǎng)的領(lǐng)域中，有哪些技能對(duì)其他行業(yè)雇傭者來說同樣適用？例如，有些人擅長(zhǎng)某行業(yè)的銷售、客戶服務(wù)或營(yíng)業(yè)分析等工作，那么這些人無論跳槽到哪個(gè)行業(yè)，這些技能都是通用的。”
Even if not, he adds, "Most people have more transferable skills than they think they have." The key is to identify yours, then practice putting them in terms a prospective employer can easily recognize. Consider, for example, how Stacey Hilton moved from a job as a TV news reporter and anchor in Augusta, Ga., to a new career in public relations in Raleigh, N.C.
即便不是這樣，他補(bǔ)充說，“大部分人所具備的‘通用技能’往往比自己想象的要多。”我們首先要做的就是找出這些技能，學(xué)著用潛在雇主容易接受的語(yǔ)言展示這些技能。舉例來說，史黛絲-希爾頓之前在美國(guó)緬因州首府奧古斯塔從事電視新聞?dòng)浾呒靶侣勚鞑スぷ鳎F(xiàn)在她在北卡羅來納州首府羅利正體驗(yàn)著公共關(guān)系領(lǐng)域一個(gè)全新的職業(yè)。她是怎樣成功轉(zhuǎn)行的呢？
"As a news anchor, I was responsible for a team of people and what we put on the air each day. In PR, they call that a project manager," Hilton says. "So I tailored my resume accordingly, and played up specific ways my TV experiences would make me great at PR." It took six months, but Hilton got her dream job as an account manager at 919 Marketing.
希爾頓說：“作為一名新聞主播，我不僅要指導(dǎo)團(tuán)隊(duì)的工作，而且要負(fù)責(zé)每天的播報(bào)內(nèi)容；這在公共關(guān)系領(lǐng)域被稱為項(xiàng)目經(jīng)理。據(jù)此，我的簡(jiǎn)歷也做了相應(yīng)的調(diào)整，突出強(qiáng)調(diào)為什么我在電視新聞?lì)I(lǐng)域的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)使我同樣能夠勝任公共關(guān)系領(lǐng)域的工作。”盡管耗費(fèi)了她六個(gè)月的時(shí)間，但希爾頓最終完成了事業(yè)的華麗轉(zhuǎn)身，獲得了營(yíng)銷、咨詢與公共關(guān)系公司 919 Marketing客戶經(jīng)理一職。
