Transferrable Skills and the Evolving Career Landscape!
Good evening all,
🌍 The career landscape is evolving, and I’m noticing more roles at the intersection of different disciplines.
Recently, I spoke with a client who had a background in social work and mental health with an interest in Cybersecurity. Together, we explored how her skills could complement the industry, and discovered an increasing demand for professionals with mental health expertise in tech—particularly as cyber professionals face rising workloads due to increasing attacks.
I also came across a role at Snapchat for a Trust & Safety Specialist. This position welcomes individuals with experience in safeguarding (social workers, teachers, etc.) to help protect users online. The role emphasizes taking action on abuse and safety incidents to keep users safe.
These examples highlight how careers are no longer limited to linear pathways. I encourage you to consider how your current skills might translate into new and unexpected industries. 🚀
I have power hour sessions where I can help you explore your career journey into Tech.
