What Are My Transferable Skills?
By Martinez Betheliza

 

If you are looking for a job or you want to know what kind of career is right for you, you might be concerned to see your focus shifting. Even in a rough economy, people want to be happy, and if you find that your career path takes you somewhere interesting, sometimes you should just follow it! Take some time and make sure that you consider what Job Skills you have that are transferable and which ones are going to serve you well no matter where you go.

When you are looking for your Transferable Skills, take some time and make a list at what you like to do. The things that you like to do are likely going to be the things that you are good at. This is something that can make a huge difference when you are looking at going from one field to another or even from one job to another. There are many people out there who find that they have a lot of great skills to offer, but unless they can identify them, there are going to be some real problems! If you are in a place where you can move forward with your career, take some time to think about the kinds of skills that transfer.

One great skill that transfers no matter where you go is communication. No matter what field you are in, you need to be able to work with other people. Communication is more than just being a smooth or competent talker, although that never hurts. You will find that there are a number of different options out there that allow you to move up the ladder quickly as long as you can talk to people. Take some time and make sure that you consider how you are going to be able to move forward and what your options are going to be with using your communication skills to get what you want. Remember that you should also make sure that you express this on your resume!

Also, make sure that you know how you feel about using skills in computers wherever you go. Do you have the right expertise with the different forms of Computer Programs, and do you have any sort of programming knowledge at all? Take some time to think about how thoroughly you have used computers in the past and the kind of programs that you have latched on to and gotten use out of. There are many programs out there that are far from intuitive and if you have any sort of experience with them, you are going to find yourself in a place where your experience is going to be quite valuable.

Are you someone who feels that you are in the wrong field? Do you want to find the one that is right for you? Consider how you are going to move forward and how you can make sure that your skills transfer the way that they need to. This can be precisely what it takes to let you move forward in the career that you want.
