The Career Pivot Playbook: How to Change Lanes Without Starting Over
About the event
Most people think a career pivot means starting over. It does not. It means arriving at the right destination from a direction most people did not expect. I made the pivot from full-cycle recruiter & sourcer at JPMorganChase, EY, and Fisher Investments to Business Intelligence Analyst at JPMorganChase, with no technical background coming in. No CS degree. No data science bootcamp. Just a clear why, a transferable story, and a strategy for making the move without walking away from everything I had built. In this session I am sharing the exact playbook. Here is what we will cover: The Decision How to know when the feeling that will not go away is actually a signal worth following, and how to stop talking yourself out of it. The Internal Pivot Advantage Why the best career pivot is usually the one you make before you have to, and why changing functions inside your current company is one of the most underrated career moves available to you. Your WHY as the Thread Every pivot comes back to one question: why are you making this change? Most people answer it defensively. We will build the narrative that makes your non-linear path look intentional, not accidental. The Transferable Asset Audit You are not starting from zero. We will map the skills, credibility, and experience you already have that cross directly into where you want to go, and identify the gaps worth closing. Overcoming It in Interviews The three interview moments that trip up career pivoters, and exactly how to handle each one without apologizing for your path. Live Q&A Drop your current role, your target direction, and your biggest fear or blocker. I will address as many as I can live. This session is free. Attending live means you can bring your specific situation and hear how the framework applies to your actual pivot, context a recording cannot replicate.
