Challenges in Changing Careers
Changing careers can come with challenges such as rejection, failed interviews, and unanswered inquiries. It is important to not take rejection personally and not give up after one setback. Instead, focus on what you can control, like tailoring your resume for each job application, reaching out to contacts for referrals, researching companies and interviewers, sending thank-you notes, and practicing interviews. Remember that there is no one right way to job search, so explore different strategies and approaches. Rejection is a normal part of the process, so it's important to stay positive, adapt, and keep going.
