Career switching is as a a result of many factors such as
Unfulfillment
Low Salary
Unemployment
Lack of interest
Over time, I've seen many people switch careers and I think it's very important to factor in some tips that will help in facilitating a good career switch.
To successfully carry out a career switch, you have to weigh in your options and also make sure you're making the right choice, there isn't much to learn really if you're just moving from one end to the other.
But if you're changing industries then you really have to be spend some time learning about the other industries, who are the big players, how you can compete and what can set you apart from other people.
After doing this you should start a cold outreach to people that you know in the other industry, this will help you to get your feet wet at least and know how it operates.
Get some referrals and start applying for jobs, referrals will help you to stay on top of your game especially if you're been referred by people in the company you're trying to get in.
Career switch is definitely possible and it takes a lot of balls to execute it, but if you think you're being short changed where you are then you're better off doing it now.
