Ep 10. Communicating Your Why in Job Interviews
Manage episode 411444468 series 3552822
Embarking on a new career path can feel overwhelming, but I can help. Crafting a career narrative is not just about explaining the desire to leave teaching but also about conveying the excitement and commitment to contributing to the success of a potential employer. In today's episode, I explain how to share stories from your teaching experience that highlight transferable skills and passion for your next role. I also provide an example "why statement" you can tailor for interviews and your cover letter that will resonate with your future tech employers. Stay tuned until the end for bonus interview tips!
