Description

After I graduated with a customized Engineering Degree (I’ll explain later) and took on my first engineering job, I thought I was going to stay with that company forever.I was wrong.That’s no longer how the corporate world works. Most companies are now “at will” in letting employees go. Also, as my experience grew, I found that my interests were changing.Those realizations made me start exploring how to make active changes in my career rather than waiting for things to happen for me.Whether you’re a recent grad with a little work experience, or an engineer with decades of experience, this course will teach you the strategy I used to successfully PIVOT my Engineering career. We will walk through the Brainstorm and Prioritization exercises together. And you’ll walk out of class with the new role/industry you should focus your energy and efforts on. Or, you'll walk out knowing that its time to leave the engineering world.This strategy works. I’ve gone through the process myself and have helped many others!Then, to ensure you know where to go from there, I'm including some Add-on material:Some next steps to takeResume TipsCover Letter ImportancePE License InformationNote: To be clear, this pivoting course is about identifying the most ideal role/industry for you personally (or confirming your compatibility with the one you already have in mind), and identifying what’s standing in the way of obtaining it. This course is not about the job hunting process.
