How to make a career change easier to understand

When you change direction, people should not have to guess how your past connects to your future. Your profile can make that link for them.

Name the direction first

State where you are heading in your headline and the opening of your About section. Clarity comes before history.

Translate your experience

Describe past work in the language of your next field. Focus on skills, decisions and results that still apply.

Show proof of interest

Add projects, courses or short posts that show you are already engaging with the new field.
