Looking at a complete pivot into a business analyst or even into a technical software role, but still trying to work out where to start.

Coming from an enterprise sales role and before that enterprise marketing. I've got a minor in accounting so have (very) basic formal commercial knowledge.

Would you recommend reaching out to recruiters to get an idea, completing a few online courses or building up my skillset on the side to eventually transition? I've accepted that there will be a paycut.

For those of you in healthcare related account management, what is your healthcare background? I am clinical and getting ready to hire a higher level account manager.

I don’t want to miss the right person because of my bias, so im wondering how many healthcare related AMs have healthcare/clinical experience… thanks in advance!

I’ve been an insurance defense attorney for 10+ years and am feeling completely drained, for all the standard reasons. I’m ready to make a move away from insurance defense but I’m not 100% sure where to begin.

I’m seriously contemplating taking a software development boot camp. For those who hire new software developers, does it make you stand out if you get your certificate from a university instead of a coding academy (like coding dojo or something)? I noticed the universities are a bit more expensive but is it worth the price to have a university on your resume or does it not really matter?

Hey everyone! I am currently working as a BA 3 on market expansion and I want to pivot to financial services. I’d love to do strategy, internal consulting, or BA. Downside is that I don’t have a business degree, I studied healthcare admin. Is that a big deal, especially considering my experience?

Would love any advice on how to break into a new industry!
