I’m considering switching fields but unsure how to bridge the gap in skills and experience. What steps helped you make a successful pivot?

Research your new industry, identify transferable skills, and complete short courses to fill knowledge gaps. Create small projects to build a portfolio. Update your resume to highlight new skills and network with professionals. Start with entry-level or freelance roles to gain experience.
