Unless you have been under a rock for the past 12 months, you might have heard the term "Career Transitioning" being used by friends, family members or colleagues when they are discussing the prospects of changing jobs. So what exactly is this new phenomena and what are the advantages of using a career transition firm when looking to make your next move?
Well, you're about to find out.
“WHAT IS CAREER TRANSITIONING”
Simply put, Career Transitioning is the process changing jobs or your career direction through a structured approach to give yourself the best chance of success.
“WHO IS CAREER TRANSITIONING FOR”
Career transition programs are suitable for any candidate at any level, within any sector or function, that is looking to make a job move. Whether you are proactively seeking new opportunities or if you are just open to the notion of moving, career transition programs will offer you the best chance of landing new opportunities.
“WHY WOULD I USE A CAREER TRANSITION PROGRAM”
The market dynamics have changed a lot over the past few years, and despite the number of opportunities increasing, the challenges candidates face when looking to find a new position have also risen significantly, and it has now become harder than ever for candidates to land a new role. So, what are the challenges and why do they exist.
“WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES CANDIDATES FACE WHEN LOOKING FOR A JOB?”
The biggest obstacle for anyone is something that is consistent across the board, so whether you’re a finance analyst at a Pharma company or a CEO at a technology company, it doesn’t really matter, both of those candidates will experience exactly the same primary challenge. In today’s market, that is very simple. It’s engagement. It’s when a client has a job that is relevant to you, firstly finds your profile ahead of the sea of other potential candidates and secondly and more importantly reaches out to you and engages with you about that position.

The easy part is converting that interview into an offer, but the biggest challenge bar none is getting into that interview situation in the first place. This is where you need to focus your energy, your efforts, and your attention, on that. How do I get into those interview situations in the first place.
“WHY DO THESE CHALLENGES EXIST”
Despite the number of job opportunities rising considerably over the past 5 years, why do candidates still face significant challenges when looking for a new job. These can be split into 3 parts
COMPETITION – The problem when a company is hiring isn’t a lack of talent, it’s actually the opposite. Too much talent in the market and this often leads to low visibility and zero client engagement.
THE HIDDEN JOB MARKET – More than 65% of jobs are not advertised. How do you find a job you don’t even know exists?
LACK OF REPRESENTATION – Recruitment companies only make up about 12-15% of the job market. The introduction of Talent Acquisition teams means that candidates no longer have representation from recruitment agencies and must rely on their own networking, visibility and proactivity when looking for a job.
“HOW DO I OVERCOME THESE CHALLENGES”
You can quickly see that even though there are a lot of opportunities to be had, the fierce competition, high levels of unadvertised jobs and the lack of representation from recruitment agencies makes it harder than ever for candidates to transition into a new career.
