The pandemic has triggered many people to reassess their current work and life, resulting in nearly a third of the people in the U.S. looking for a new opportunity that feels more aligned with their values and beliefs in the last year and a half. Changing jobs is never an easy transition, and it can be overwhelming to evaluate whether your next job is a better fit. In this episode, our friend of the pod, Hanya Moharram, a UX Designer and Design Researcher at Nava, joined the conversation with me to discuss how we each navigated our career transition—from deciding to look for a new opportunity to assessing whether this opportunity is the right opportunity, to actually accepting the job offer and getting to know our new jobs and companies. Most essentially, we discussed the importance of having a diverse and inclusive culture, and how it will make you feel integrated, supported and valued regardless of your backgrounds and your level of experiences.
If you’re someone who’s currently looking for some changes in your career, I hope this episode will provide you with some insights on how to navigate this journey and feel empowered to take the leap of faith to find your next opportunity.
