Great post by Kieran Flanagan, CMO at Zapier, about his unconventional approach to transitioning from engineering to digital marketing. https://lnkd.in/gBEhwwyx In my case, I spent a few years in HR before realizing that recruitment was, without a doubt, the right path for me. 💡 Many people today have a desire to reinvent themselves, driven by fresh challenges over current skill sets. The challenge for hiring managers is that uncovering these adaptable candidates takes time, while those who look obvious "on paper" often seem like the easier choice. 📝 The current market presents a unique opportunity, filled with talented individuals seeking new opportunities. By taking the time to evaluate people beyond their resumes, you might just uncover your next future executive. What about you, have you ever switched career paths or are you currently considering a transition? I'd love to hear about your career journey in the comments! 🌪️ #recruiting #potential #careerdevelopment 💼

This single email transformed my career. I was stuck. I hated my career. I was deeply unhappy in my life. I was an average software engineer. I was doing average work. I knew two things: - I wanted more from my career - Everything is going digital, and I wanted in I hatched a plan. Email every founder of a digital marketing agency in Dublin under the pretence I wanted advice on a digital course I was considering. For any meetings I got, sell me working at that agency. I didn't even have money to take the course. I knew it was a long shot. What's crazy about this email is it got flagged as 'Spam' (you can see in the image) and was sent to the agency's reception. I didn't have the founder's email address. What are the chances he'd reply? A busy founder answering an email from their receptions Spam folder? Pretty unlikely. Well, he replied, the only reply I got, and I did the meeting. I sold myself hard for 30 mins, and I got a chance. They were doing final interviews for a graduate role in digital marketing the next day. The NEXT day! The final interview was a presentation, a digital marketing client pitch for a pretend client. I knew nothing about digital marketing. I got home and worked on the presentation all night. Didn't sleep for a single minute. I was filled with hope, adrenaline, and coffee. The next day, I did my presentation. I got the role. It meant restarting my career all over again. I had graduated with an hon degree in computing science and spent four years as a software engineer. Now I was starting as a graduate again. I didn't care. I was elated. Since then, I've hustled, grinded, and focused on making up for lost time by being the best version of myself. Working in a career you enjoy makes all those things much easier. Two lessons: 1. Don't wait for something to change; make it happen for yourself. 2. If you've had some success in your career, pay it forward and make time to give someone else a shot at their success.
