How Do You Get Experience, When No One Will Hire You Because You Don’t Have Experience?

At some point in your career, you will face the paradox of needing to gain experience to move your career forward, but no one is willing to giving you a chance because you don’t have the experience. 

This is often seen early in one’s career when searching for that first or second job out of college.  In this scenario, you have very little on the job experience. It is also seen later on in one’s career if they are trying to make a pivot.  In this scenario, you have some skills that are transferrable, but other new ones you may need to learn.

This week, Jim, Jason, and Jon tackle the steps one could take in various stages of their career to gain experience and get around this paradox.
