When you can't translate your experience to a new field

I'm finally making the jump to a new field, but every time I try to explain what I've done, it comes out wrong. The skills are all there, I know it, but in this new language they sound small or beside the point. I sit at my desk rewording the same line, sure that whoever reads it won't get what I actually bring.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You're switching fields but can't translate your experience so it lands.

If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
