🔄 Is Changing Jobs a Bad Thing? 🔄 The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average person holds 12 jobs in a lifetime (2021). Changing jobs frequently can be beneficial if you focus on improving your "transferable skills." These skills are essential across various roles and are hard to teach, but they improve with time and experience. As you navigate your career, consider these questions: ♦ Are you an effective communicator? ♦ Are you a creative problem solver? ♦ Do you have the ability to give and receive feedback? ♦ Are you self-confident? Careers that require soft skills such as leadership, planning, and problem-solving often come with higher salaries. Join Brandywine Cares this Fall for CareerProsper 3.0, a 6-week online class (12-15 hour commitment) that will help you plan your next move, cultivate your transferable soft skills, and take the necessary steps to achieve success! Start with this article: 9 Transferable Skills That Can Help You in Life and then register for CareerProsper. https://lnkd.in/eupsHhdJ See you in the Fall! #CareerDevelopment #TransferableSkills #JobSearch #BrandywineCares #CareerProsper Connect with Us!

🔍 Interviewing is a Skill! 🔍 You may have all the technical knowledge and experience, but will you fit in? Corporate culture is a meaningful and very real element in deciding which candidate a company will select and which company's offer an applicant will accept. It’s a two-way street. As you prepare for your interview, take the time to: 1- Read about corporate culture generally. 2- Research the company with which you will be interviewing. 2- Ask questions about the company's culture to show you value employee engagement and understand the importance of there being a good fit. For some valuable Q&A to provide guidance, check out this resource: https://lnkd.in/d4D2MUgk Happy interviewing! 🌟 #InterviewTips #CorporateCulture #JobSearch #BrandywineCares Connect with Us!
