Welcome to the Career Hackers Mini Series.

These are really short episodes that get straight to the point and tackle real-world challenges among career hackers. The objective is to get the most essential advice you need in less than 10 minutes.

In this episode, we're taking a bite out of the Six steps to pivot into your dream job. These are precisely the steps I've taken in my career, taking me from a sales manager at Dell to a product marketer at LinkedIn and now to the Global Director of Product Marketing at one of Europe’s top 40 startups. Typically, these types of moves take at least a decade. I did it in just 5 years.

As a heads up, we are crunching a lot in 10 minutes, so we created a mini-guide for those who would like to get more details. Just click on the link below. Let's get started.
