How to write a resume when changing careers or jobs?

In the workplace, there are not a few job-hoppers who want to change careers or industries. It is difficult to change jobs, and it is even more difficult to change careers. If the job intention on your resume is very different from your previous accumulated work experience, the interviewer will look confused and often "fire" you within 30 seconds, resulting in your resume often sinking into the sea. Many job seekers are very upset about this: how to write a resume if they want to change careers or jump ship?

The reporter learned that when enterprises are recruiting, job seekers with the same experience are overwhelmed, and HR people will basically not consider job seekers who change jobs, because their experience gap in the target position is undoubtedly a risk for enterprises. Of course, if your resume is "unusual" enough to express your strong interest in the position, your perfect career planning and working ideas for the target position, I believe that a discerning HR will give you an interview opportunity.

Here is an example of successful job-hopping and career change. Maybe you can learn a trick from these two resumes.

Example 1: Write a cover letter for the "target position"/

Mr. Jin, 10 years working experience, has worked in manufacturing, electronics and service industries, and has been engaged in training, consulting and project management. Although he has worked in different jobs, Mr. Jin has always had a strong interest in human resource management. Not long ago, he handed in his resume, hoping to get a position as HR manager or manager of organizational development department.

Characteristics of resume writing:

At first glance, Mr. Kim's resume breaks the traditional writing format. He simplified the description of past experience, but focused on the understanding of the position and his own experience, which looked like a combination of resume and cover letter. His resume looks like this:

The first part is the introduction of personal basic information;

The second part immediately wrote "job intention"-HR manager. He expounded his interest in human resource management, his long-term experience, and the experience gained in other positions of several human resource incidents. In addition, Mr. Jin participated in interview recruitment activities when he was engaged in project management, so he also highlighted his experience and experience in talent selection.

In the third part, Mr. Jin summed up what measures he would take if he could engage in HR work and what effect he hoped to achieve.

The fourth part briefly lists the previous 10 years' work experience. Since most of these experiences have nothing to do with HR, let's briefly describe them.

The fifth part lists some personality traits that conform to HR work, such as patience, meticulous, good at listening, good at cooperating with various departments and strong learning ability.

After this resume is submitted, due to its unique writing format and clear job hunting intention, it is easy to attract the attention of HR and get an interview opportunity.
