If we can avoid massive collective issues that would be appreciated as there is very little agency the individual has to address those and that helpless ess can often extend to the more solvable individual matters we all grapple with but also occasionally rise to conquer.

I am looking into a career change but I've been doing the same type of job my whole career.

I have an upcoming interview for a job that sounds really interesting but I'm worried that I won't be able to highlight my transferable skills.

Does anyone have tips/suggestions?

Is there some kind of project or proof of your abillity/portfolio you could bring in to showcase. Its always better if you have product to demonstrate your skills and knowledge so they can feel confident in your abillity to produce similar product for them

Have ChatGPT brainstorm questions, then ask him to focus on transferable skills. Now you have an idea of what it might look like and you can think of how to explain it to ChatGPT.

Just nailed an interview because I prepped with ChatGPT. Gave it my resume, the position I was applying for, and some of my recent accomplishments and it helped me realize that I was a stronger candidate than I thought, so I was able to use that during the interview.

Please keep in mind that at no time do I ever believe ChatGPT blindly.
