Description

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

Most people do not change careers because they are unhappy. They change because they finally admit they have no idea what they want, and staying got harder than finding out.

The part nobody warns you about

You update the CV, apply to forty roles, hear back from three. Meanwhile a voice in your head keeps suggesting you are not really qualified for any of them — and roughly 70% of people hear that same voice, usually the ones who know the most. Money runs down. The search takes longer than you budgeted for. Somewhere in month three you start considering roles you did not want in month one.

I have sat on the recruiter's side of that process for years, and I have been the candidate too. The gap between how people search and how hiring actually works is enormous, and it costs good people the jobs they should have had.

What we do about it

First, we work out what you are aiming at. Not with inspiration — with a talents inventory, a values questionnaire and the career cube, so the answer holds up on a bad day. Then we audit your skills against the target role and turn the gaps into a plan.

After that the mechanics. How recruiters actually source, screen and decide. A CV built for the seven seconds it will get. A LinkedIn profile that surfaces in the searches that matter. Interview preparation including the questions that decide it. The pay conversation with the four objections your boss will use. And the impostor voice handled directly, because it does more damage during a transition than anything on your CV.

Who is teaching this

Mike, the number one HR instructor on Udemy. More than 1.6 million course enrolments, over 150,000 professionals trained, PHRi and SHRM-CP certified, HRCI representative in more than 10 countries. I built the people function of the unicorn Preply and worked at Wargaming, Alfa-Bank and iDeals. I have read a very large number of CVs, and I will tell you honestly what happens to most of them.

Where the course ends

Not at the offer. Getting hired is the middle of the story, and the first ninety days decide whether the move was worth making. So the final part is about landing well: what the strongest employees do differently, how to work with a new manager, how to make your contribution visible early, and how to keep your motivation when nobody is watching yet.

One honest note

A career change takes longer than you think and costs more than you planned. That is normal. What is not normal is doing it blind, on advice from people who have never seen the hiring side. Enrol now and start the first lesson today.
