If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel,
Change your viewpoint,
Change your viewpoint,
If you don't know your skills and can't talk about them with others, how is your boss or a prospective employer supposed to see and understand your skills?
The advice and exercises in the Self Assessment page will help you identify your strengths, identify those skills you enjoy using, and describe examples of your work. These steps will ensure that you can offer proof of a competency. If you are contemplating a larger transition, these steps can break what you accomplished out of the box within which you worked and reframe them for the new field. What are your first thoughts about what you do best? Make a list that is a working document, a list you can continue to add to. You can use the Transferable Skills List PDF, linked from the page, as a prompt for skills you may have forgotten from your earlier list. List your accomplishments (from your work history to volunteer activities; for new graduates, write down your leadership positions in college organizations). The Transferable Skills in Context PDF, linked from the page, can help you remember your accomplishments and write your stories List examples of work and note the value of each example to current and past organizations, within and beyond the scope of your position. Think of as many examples as possible that you would like prospective employers to know about. These skills and stories are then used in your verbal and written communication to exercise your strengths, competencies, and their potential benefits to an employer. #CareerAdvice #Skills
