Episode Notes

Many people at some time in their life have thought about changing careers. In fact, in a 2019 Indeed survey, 65% of respondents who had not yet switched careers said that they either thought about or previously considered doing so.

 
Making a career switch happen in reality, however, is not always easy.
 
In this episode, Zicklin Evening MBA student Adiel Schmidt shares her story of how she made a career switch from Accounting into Marketing Analytics, including:
 

  • How she landed in Accounting and then Marketing Analytics
  • Zicklin classes that helped direct her interests
  • How she focused on the transferrable skills that would help her switch careers
  • Frustrations she faced in getting that first break
  • Lessons she learned from it all
  • The episode is hosted by Justyn Makarewycz, Associate Director of Employer Relations at the GCMC (https://www.linkedin.com/in/justyndm/). To connect with the GCMC, email us at [email protected] to schedule an appointment. Thank you for listening!
