In your experience, where is the career change story most useful? Do you use it in more written form such as applications/resumes or is it more brought up in interviews?

I’m currently looking at transitioning into the IT/tech space from a different industry.

Hey! It's most useful when interviewing, especially when they ask you "tell me more about yourself", "why did you decide to transition" or even "why do you want to work here".

It's important to have a good elevator pitch as it can make or break your job interview.
