Hey all, I just joined Fishbowl and was hoping to get some advice/guidance. I just graduated from University where I studied business management. I work in an accounting firm as an admin assistant a job ive done in a construction company and a real estate firm through my university years. I was really hoping to get into logistics more specifically in a fulfilment type of business. I have had no luck finding a job in this field. What would be a good entry level job to look for?

PhD in Chemistry w/ 8 YOE. Now pursuing a part-time MBA while working as an R&D manager is a chemical company. I don't enjoy chemistry research anymore and want to try something else. I'm interested in consulting and think it could open doors for me to do something different after a few years. My main struggle is that I think I'm pretty old to make such a change (if I can get into consulting) ...not sure if anyone has a similar background that can share the insights.
Btw- M, 36, married w/ kids

If you want more from your career, but you can’t stop thinking about how stuck you are, you won’t get more from your career.

Thoughts —> Beliefs —> Actions —> Change

1. Think: what would “a better career” look like? Write it down.

2. Believe you deserve it. Believe it’s yours before you have it.

3. Take action:

- Suggest improvements at work
- Look for new job opportunities

4. The change in you already occurred and the next change will be in your career.

DM me to learn more.
