Hello! I’m new at fishbowl and would love to use this platform to grow more professionally through active listening and advice. That being said, I’m a strategist with the resume of a media person. Can anyone help me with better positioning myself as a strategist? I really want to start a strategy role but I don’t have the actual experience and I’m afraid I’m not passing the initial screening for a strategy role because of my resume.

Imagine having to chanbel your trauma into a deck to sell in an idea to clients?
