Hi,

What type of job you would be interested in? When you know what you want to do you can start thinking the qualifications and skills that you poses for that position.

Most common skills what to take from tech job:

Good IT skills

Team work skills

Ability to work independently

Ability to make decisions

Good phone skills and manners

good stress management

Ability to handle multiple tasks

Good organizational skills

good with details

Planning skills

good following orders

good giving/writing instructions

customer service skills

If you have had any supervisor experience you can take that.

Have you managed any projects? Successfully?

Any details and achievements hat you might have could easily be

taken out as general skills for any job.

Also if you have any hobbies or volunteer work/activities you can promote?

As you can see there are so many things that you can present.

It is easier to look for skills when you know what you want to do and what might the employer be looking for.

You also have good education. You can take that and the skills that you acquired and present them in your CV to highlight your ability to have other kind of work. I believe you could change to consulting, sales or project management, or even a manager/supervisor position in other areas.

Hope this helps....

Just hope you first think what you would like to do and then look for the skills... easier that way.

Cheers,

Mr. Rendic
