Perpetually client facing and considering a pivot into People Ops

Hi Elpha community- I am someone who has accidentally been in tech for my entire career. I am an extrovert and have always found myself in client facing roles.

I'm at a crossroads in my career where I cannot imagine myself continuing to advocate for SaaS products anymore. However, I am a true people person and have recruiting/interviewing experience in my background, and have also worked for an HR tech company and boutique culture strategy firm. I love talking to people about what they're passionate about, and supporting others so that they can thrive in their roles.

Would appreciate any advice/perspective from anyone who has navagated a career change like this, or anyone who is in a leadership position within HR/People Ops. How can I make this pivot? Does it sound like too much of a stretch?

Hi @KatieLooby 👋 I'd love to learn more about your background and passions. Would you like to chat sometime? Feel free to shoot me a message. I'm happy to jump on a call and offer any advice that I can!
