What We Do For Career Changers

Resume Target's career change service uses a 60 or 90-minute interview to reframe your transferable skills so hiring managers see what qualifies you — not wonder why you're applying.

The Unique Challenge of Career Change

Every career transition is different, but they all share one problem: your resume looks "wrong" for the job.

What Hiring Managers See

  • "This person has no experience in our industry"
  • "Why are they even applying?"
  • "They'll need too much training"
  • "Job hopper or desperate?"
  • Instant rejection — no interview

What We Make Them See

  • "This person has exactly the skills we need"
  • "Their background is actually an asset"
  • "They bring a fresh perspective"
  • "Clear motivation and direction"
  • Invitation to interview

We fix your career change resume with one conversation

Building the Bridge
Between Careers

Career transitions are complex. We need time to understand both where you've been and where you're going.

We're not just documenting your history — we're translating it. That requires understanding your target roles, identifying transferable skills, and crafting a narrative that makes your transition logical and compelling.

  • Target Role Analysis: What positions are you pursuing? What skills do those roles require?
  • Hidden Transferables: Skills you use every day that directly apply to your new field.
  • Relevant Accomplishments: Achievements from your past that prove capability in your future.
  • Your Story: Why this change? What's driving your transition?

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I include all my unrelated experience?

Yes, but we reframe it. We highlight transferable skills from each role and downplay industry-specific details that don't transfer. Nothing is wasted.

What if I have no experience in my target field?

That's the whole point of career transition. You have transferable skills from everything you've done — we identify and position them effectively.

Should I get certifications first?

It depends on your target field. We can discuss this in your consultation. Sometimes certifications help, sometimes a strong resume is enough to get started.

How do I explain my career change in interviews?

Your resume and cover letter set up the narrative. When it's positioned correctly, interviewers see your transition as logical and positive.

Do you write the cover letter too?

Yes. For career changers, the cover letter is critical — it's where you explain your motivation and connect the dots. It's included in every package.

What if I'm not sure what I want to transition into?

Talk to an advisor first. We need clear target roles to write an effective career change resume. We can help you narrow down options.
