How to Use Your Master’s Degree to Change Careers
Beyond Graduate School

Are you considering a career pivot after your master’s? If you’re pursuing a master’s degree to change career fields, one important tool you’ll need is a compelling career transition story.
As a career changer, you need to effectively communicate why you’re making the shift, how your previous work experiences adds value, and how your master’s degree supports this move. Your career transition story will serve as an important framework to help you network in your new field, write resumes, and communicate your value in interviews.
Join Beyond Graduate School for this webinar designed to help master’s students changing career paths after their degree. You’ll learn
- How to communicate your decision to change careers
- How you can leverage your past work experience to build your new career
- How to articulate the value your master’s degree brings to your new field
