This is a great option for those eager for a change of scenery, but still want the comfort of familiarity. Find a new industry that has always tickled your fancy and fits your personality to a tee. You can step into your new role with an air of confidence and experience around you from day dot, all while experiencing a brand-new work culture.
Before you start tidying your desk there are some things to consider:
- Your potential future employer and what you want. If you could choose from any kind of business in any kind of industry, which would you want to work for and why?
- Do you believe or support what your new employer does?
- Why are you wanting a change? Will this change give you what you truly desire from your work life?
With any change, also comes challenges. Stressful interviews, having to leave your work bestie behind, and perhaps the biggest challenge, fear of the unknown. But when you stop to think about it, if it's the right choice then these obstacles can be overcome to find something that could help enrich your life.
