Hello! I have been networking for almost a year now and have spoke to many people who hold titles that I am interested in having myself. Titles such as: executive assistant, operations manager, implementation specialist, and process improvement manager.

i am looking to step into a new role similar to the titles above but the catch is: all my previous experience is in college residences. I have tried to change my resume to fit more operational and admin (which I do possess those skills) but I feel that I am not given a chance at an interview because my experiences isn't traditional.

anyone in Elpha or your network looking for, and willing to take a chance, with someone like me?

thank you to any recommendations or suggestions!!
