Coffee Talk: Effective Strategies for A Career Transition

Relocating abroad. Switching industries. Reinventing yourself. Rebuilding networks from zero. Career transitions are tough enough in one country—doing it across borders adds new layers of uncertainty, identity shifts, and cultural surprises.

This interactive session brings together two groups:
✔ Those who successfully made a career transition abroad (share 1–2 most useful strategies)
✔ Those in the process of changing (share your biggest challenge)

We’ll open with short personal stories, curated discussion, and collaborative support. Expect mindset shifts, tactical tips, and real-world examples—not generic advice.

Key themes include:
• Repositioning your existing skills in a new market
• Managing identity loss and imposter feelings
• Building trust quickly when no one knows you
• Avoiding common traps during reinvention
• Using constraints to strengthen your professional story

Format:

Quick introductions and individual transition context

Strategy sharing from those who’ve crossed the bridge

Challenge sharing from those in motion

Group brainstorming, resources, and perspective shifts

This is not therapy or résumé critique.
It’s peer-driven intelligence: practical, candid, and supportive.

Walk away with:
• 2–3 concrete tactics you can act on immediately
• Fresh angles on your biggest career block
• Confidence from hearing real journeys—not theory

Whether you’re pivoting industries, rediscovering your professional identity abroad, or planning your next jump—join us.
