Career change after a layoff, where to begin? - 7 weeks in

My layoff made me rethink whether to stay in my field. I have good customer skills and I am comfortable with spreadsheets. How did you start?

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.

I began with informational chats, then a short online course, then a related entry-level role. It took about 13 months.
