Was recently let go “due to market conditions” at my previous role in the mortgage space. Trying to pivot my career into FP&A roles. I have had a few interviews here and there, yet I get rejected. Can anyone provide advice? I have a bachelors in Finance with 3 yrs experience in the mortgage space.

What are your success stories about succession planning? I was hired as a lateral to work on/help sustain a retiring partner's book of business. During my interview in 2017, he said his target retirement would be 2019-2021. Now, after a good 2020 (for our practice area), he mused that he might not retire until 2025. I don't want him to feel pushed out, and have a lot to learn from him, but I do want to help/plan handoff of work. Interested in guidance for how to have these conversations!
