In conversation with graduates who have changed career

Sunny Lalli, Employability and Career Consultant, in conversation with Joy and Shiryn, two University of Exeter graduates, examines why and how graduates make career changes. In this episode we explore cycles of change from pre-contemplation to action, the career decision-making process of decide, plan and compete; define what a career change is, how graduates can generate ideas to propel a potential career change and resources such as mentoring which can support a career change.
