Hello,
I am an experienced BA with a fortune 100 bank and I’d like to make a switch into a supply chain position. I am having trouble getting interviews even though I’ve used a professional staffing agency. I believe my technical, analytical, and relationship building/maintaining make me more than qualified but yet my last phone call for a position was basically the recruiter telling me I’m no where near qualified. I’m having difficulty accepting that because I friend just was hired into a SC position with far less experience than I have. Any insight or info would be great! Thank you.
Hi Matthew. Swapping industries can be tough at times. Employers are usually looking for experience in their industry and whilst you no doubt have great analytical skills they may be concerned about ‘relevance’ when it comes to Supply Chain. Maybe take a step towards the role you want, by taking a lower level role short term, just to get the Supply Chain experience?
