There are a number of factors that can contribute to the decision to transfer your skills to a new work function or industry: the current job market, salary, lack of job satisfaction, and/or lifestyle changes. The decision to transfer your skills and re-career is an important one; however, there is a great deal you can do – research, assessments, and planning to prepare to make this important decision.
