๐ŸŽฎ Bungie Bound โ€” Change Career Means Start From Zero Meh?

You've worked for years. Then you want to change career.
Suddenly every job asks for experience.

Wah... all my old experience useless already ah? ๐Ÿ˜‚

That's the idea behind Bungie Bound.

My example uses moving from audio into game audio, but the same question can apply to anyone changing careers.


Bungie Bound


๐Ÿ”„ You Don't Come Empty-Handed

Changing industry doesn't erase everything you learned.

Your old job may have taught you:

๐Ÿค Teamwork

๐Ÿง  Problem solving

๐Ÿ”ฅ Handling pressure

๐Ÿ‘ฅ Leadership

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Working with people

These skills may still be useful.

But the new job will also have things you don't know yet.


๐Ÿ” So Check the Jobs

Instead of anyhow taking courses:

What skills do employers want?

What do I already have?

What am I missing?

Then:

โœ… Already Have

Keep it.

๐Ÿ”’ Don't Have

Learn it.

Simple.

Don't collect certificates like Pokรฉmon. Learn what you actually need. ๐Ÿ˜‚


๐ŸŽฎ My Example

For game audio, I may already have audio experience.

But gaming may ask for things like:

Sound Design

Wwise

Unreal Engine

So I'm not asking:

"Am I starting from zero?"

I'm asking:

"What am I bringing over, and what do I still need to learn?"


๐Ÿ† The Simple Idea

Keep what you know

โ†“

Learn what's missing

โ†“

Build something

โ†“

Show what you can do

โ†“

Apply

New career. Same person. Different skills to learn.

That's Bungie Bound.
