Referral
yep
Always the best way
Yup!
I got a VP role in an industry I have 0 experience in. Articulate your skills and build a business case for why your background and behavioral attitude will set you up for success!
And maybe a lil how to video here and there 😉
If only people followed that shit they too could have dope ass jobs.
HEARD. Now upvote me ya hooligan 🦡🧿

I would use this as a template no matter the industry you are going to just replace tech with med device terms, hvac, etc

The best way is to learn how to proofread your subject lines...
Depends. What experience do you have, and what are you looking to move into?
You may not have the experience in the industry, but do you have the skills to thrive in the profession? That is the most important aspect. Plus, knowing someone in the company that you want to go is huge.
Skills matter the most but best way is to know someone in the org or build connections
word of mouth. Do something (like a presentation for them or a course for yourself) that would give you some grounds to stand on - when applying for jobs.
But in this case, only referrals would give you guaranteed success.

Focus on transferrable skill set.
