Great source for info. I've had the same job for 12 years and I'm bored. I've been looking strong for three weeks and have gotten three interviews. The main question is "why are you looking to leave after twelve years?" And I think I'm being too honest. How should I answer?
Hey Darlene. Grab my free interview interview. It’s the first question I cover in the book in the silver billet interview chapter. Check the front page of the milewalk academy website.
I just switched from being an aerospace engineer to an attorney position. I interviewed at a big law firm and I got an offer in less than 24hrs. I'm starting on September 20th, 2021. Thanks a lot Andrew!!! People, you can do it. Prepare well and stay focus, nothing comes easy but the reward is there If you fight for it.
Hey Nelson, can you tell me your process from aero eng to attorney? I'm looking into that myself and came across your message here. It would be great if you could offer some advice. Thanks!
Hey Andy, thanks a lot for this great video. Used this for my interview for a risk role in a large investment bank and I got the job!! Thanks a lot once again and keep doing what you do.
I totally agree, referrals are really important! Building that connection with someone by having common ground is such a great in for the first interview.
Andy, another fantastic video packed full of information. I especially like that you mentioned to remain open to career growth. This is a common strategy for those changing careers.
Professor Heather Austin thanks so much Heather for all your support and glad you liked the video. It’s such an important element to remain open through these changes. Right?!?!?
Thank you Andy as always great advice. I am in the process of changing careers myself so your book your webinars have been invaluable. I also passed you along to my daughter who has little experience and went to an interview used your techniques and landed the job she has no experience in. I appreciate all your information and pass it along to whoever will listen.
Tammy Ann Tammy Ann, love the double whammy here. Absolutely love it! And thank you for supporting me, the milewalk academy, and my channel. Your shares are priceless! :)
Thanks Andy! An excellent approach to and checklist for leveraging transferrable skills - do your due diligence (step 2) and explicitly connect your past (steps 3 & 4) and your present (steps 5 & 7) to your future (step 9)!
I was listening to his video the last 9 months , and i swear to GOD , I found a job once i did all the advised he gave , and also , i always go with live he answered all the questions
1:03 *Before The Interview #1 : Make sure, as much as you can, the route taken to get the interview is favorable 2:06 #2 Make sure you’ve done your homework to identify the capabilities that are extremely important for that particular position so you can plan your responses to interview questions 3:23 *In The Interview #3 Mapping what you’ve done in your past & how it’s prepared you with the capabilities to be successful in your new role 3:56 #4 Highlight your unique experiences from your particular career, whatever that is 4:44 #5 Explain your “why” & show its strength with sound reasonings 5:21 #6 Use your eagerness to get that role 5:52 #7 Bring in whatever collateral you had 6:40 #8 Remain open to getting your foot in the door - If you need to take a pay cut, it might be worth it - If you need to move down a notch or two it might be worth it - Willing to do whatever it takes in order to secure a job with this company 7:18 #9 The more you can shift their focus to the future with you in that role - When you’re in the interview, look for opportunities when your background is being evaluated, connect the dots & map your past to what you can do for them in the future - Simulations for them to envision you in the role - You can even ask the interview to ask you a particular question so you can show how you’d handle that 9:21 #10 Connect with the interviewer & get them to care about you - Get them to care more about you & wanting to hire you than the skills for the role
Drawing parallels between your previous or current role to the role you are interviewing for is hugely significant! Connecting the dots. And number 9. Thanks Andy!
Thanks for sharing of great tips, especially for tips 3 , 4 and 5 essential for changing careers, tips 9 and 10 being indispensable for success in any interview. Stay positive, do what we can control to win employer's recognition!
Thank you Andy for providing us with the 10 steps that are necessary to win any job interview when changing careers. The 10 steps can also be used to ace any interview. Thank you for providing the deeper dive into the subject matter and for preparing us to success!
This was excellent Andy; so many gold nuggets in here to help me figure out how to best map what I know and bring to the table to address their needs/problems/issues, etc. Many helpful specifics too, to help me, move the conversation forward - into their future. This exactly what I need to see tonight! Thank you!
Andy's point on knowing as much about the employer and what they are looking for in the job going into the interview is what you will need to give convincing answers to the interview questions and how you would handle the scenario the interviewer asked you. Its the confidance you can do the job even though you don't have the specific experence in that area.
Great tips again, Andrew! Agreed with the comments here, as well-in regard to what the interviewer wants to see, if you're changing careers or vying for a position outside your professional background. I've had to do this many times. The successes were when the strategies you've outlined actually translated across. The failures were when they didn't. It's that simple! What you've eluded to here and in other videos would the #1 reason interviews bomb (especially career-changing ones). Displaying rock-solid confidence and commanding understanding of an industry role or field DOES NOT equal "ego," "arrogance," or "pride." While not meaning to come across that way, some of us do-unless we're intentionally MINDFUL of the difference between the two. "Egocentric" = "They're likely un-trainable, hard to work with, maybe a problem later on that will become a headache for us if we hire them." Confident + commanding knowledge / presence = "They likely won't cower away from challenges or learning curves. Then can envision themselves doing well already, due to their background and overall attitude. Safer to take a chance with them and hire them." The difference is everything. As you said.. "overtly" demonstrate all of your selling points vs. covertly (they're not mind-readers). Keep the awesome tips coming, my friend! Kudos!
Andrew LaCivita you got it, man. And I know you’re probably swamped in emails, so whenever you can. And I have absolutely no expectations, so just let me know!
Andrew, you are awesome and gifted. The way you package the interviewing materials is unique. I really enjoyed all your series and will be advocating for you. Great Job.
Thank you SO much Andy for making this video! I have an interview this morning for a different career and got the connection through my network! Quite timely you put this out right now :)
Always really great advice, Andrew Lacivita! Really great points as I'm a career changer. Good ways to leverage transferable skills. Thanks for this video! 👍
Hi Andy - I've been going through a ton of your videos recently. I'm currently in consideration for a small pivot within my current company. I really wish I saw this before speaking with the hiring managers. Thanks for all you do
@@andylacivita It's been a week since I've contacted the hiring manager and haven't heard back. Any tips for the follow up email? I'm leaning towards a simple message seeing if there were any updates. Thanks!
what about leaving a position i was at for 5 months to another company doing a similar thing. (i dont like the people where im at and not treated well)
I am so glad I came across your channel, Andrew! I've been job searching for a career change while finishing the MSc I engaged to get prepared for this new role, and it's literally draining all my energy!! Luckily there are people like you sharing valuable tips with us. And thank you for mentioning your personal story (maybe in another video), the part about being able to promote someone/something else's improvement by making this step. Thinking about it makes the effort worth! Thanks for the encouragement! =D
Hey Mike. Great question. Definitely NO is the answer. Recruiters have a low percentage of helping you when you're making a simple job change. It's even lower if your trying to change careers!
I it's a good explanation But I have a question : My designation is designer but role played are engineer And my degree is also Engineer So how to mention it in resume...

Hi Andy - I've been going through a ton of your videos recently. I'm currently in consideration for a small pivot within my current company. I really wish I saw this before speaking with the hiring managers. Thanks for all you do

Stay tuned, folks....Step #9 is a game changer!
Phil Min it’s my favorite too Phil!!
???? #bootcamp... is a recruiter somethingva career changer should seek out to help with the search?
Hey Mike. Great question. Definitely NO is the answer. Recruiters have a low percentage of helping you when you're making a simple job change. It's even lower if your trying to change careers!
I it's a good explanation
But I have a question :
My designation is designer but role played are engineer
And my degree is also Engineer
So how to mention it in resume...
Be very wary of being an apprentice... being 'overly qualified' as an apprentice will trigger other ppl's jealousies and make you a workplace target.
Just focus on you!!!
