Your ObjectiveAs an alumnus, your objective is to make a successful transition to a new job or to a totally new career path. Research has shown that most workers will hold five to six jobs in their lifetimes and may work in two or three entirely different career fields (these numbers are almost double for recent college grads). The simple fact is, most of us will face changes in our work lives over time and will have to continually seek out new opportunities.
Your challenge as a job seeker (or career changer) is to accurately assess your skills, interests, personal values, and experiences as they relate to your current goal, then to match your background with employers who have needs you can fill.
