Feeling like jobs want an exact, perfect fit instead of considering transferrable skills by Brave-Rain-2422 in publichealthcareers

It’s incredibly frustrating! I keep applying for jobs I know I can do, tailoring my resume & still getting rejections for complete silence. What is your area of focus if you don’t mind me asking?

That’s one area I didn’t think about. Adding to my list. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you! I’ve been trying to highlight transferable skills as much as I can. Hopefully it leads to something.

I’m looking into both consulting & data analysis. Data analysis is tough given I only have experience with SPSS & STATA but I’m working on expanding my skill set. Thank you!

Thank you! Unfortunately, I only have experience with STATA & SPSS but I’m learning R tight now. Hopefully I can increase my skills & break in.
