The reasons to change your job!?

Question

I am working as an IT administrator for over 3 years and I am going to move to the airline field as an Cargo Trafic Staff.
I know that there will be an answer during the interview that will ask me why do I make such change. From a non-related job to a cargo trafic staff.
Would anybody suggest me a persuasive reason please?
FYI: Cargo trafic staff will deal with cargo booking and calculating to balance them when the cargo are dispatched onto the aircraft.

Answer 1

The most persuasive response is the truth - surely you have your reasons, I suggest you write down anything you can think of about your decision to change. How is the new field similar to your old field, what skills did you learn in the old field that apply to the new one?? (this is the most important!!) Also, what attracted you to the new field? How does it differ from the old field (in a way that is positive to you)? What do you dislike in the old field that you think you would experience less of in the new field? (This step is not for the interviewer to see!)

Next you will want to read over what you wrote and look for a pattern or theme, and cast it in a positive light, don't be negative about the old field, simply use that information to help you say what would be so great about the new one for you personally. Remember you are SELLING yourself to the employer, so you want them to believe several things, primarily these - 1. you are serious and enthusiastic about the career change and will stick with it a long time, 2. you have the skills needed for the new career and you can successfully apply them in the new situation.

Good luck!

Answer 2

just tell them you wanted something new.
after 3 years its okay to change jobs. i dont think any employer has a problem with that.
dont stress. they will understand.
at first i thought a cargo trafic staff would be someone who loads luggages into the aircraft. boy was i wrong.

Answer 3

It all depends on your confidence level. In past many people have succeeded in cross function. Within an organisation also, successful people keep moving from one department to another. Nevertheless, it is a challenging and risky affair. All the very best.

Answer 4

No job is simple or easy.you have to sweat out for a good pay.by swifting job you get a new environment,new friends,new place to live etcso say that you wanted to face new challenges and this was the job that gave you such challange.

Answer 5

Let them know that you wanted to go a different route in your career. Or, it was suggested to me once to try and find as many similarities between two jobs of a different nature. It helps ease doubts about your ability to perform the new duties.

Answer 6

You have the right to change jobs so no one including the employer your applying with should have nothing negative to say it's a career change people do it all the time

Answer 7

take your personal reasons then spin them around to show the employer why they will benefit

for example, you could say that you have always had a passion to work in the ariline industry and this was a convenient way to enter this industry, employers like to hear the word passion

Answer 8

I don't know how old you are, but you can always say something like you are looking into a new career.

Answer 9

Answer 10
