Why your career stalls after immigrating
Those who immigrate usually take a survival job to cover the essentials. It was supposed to be temporary, but time passes: the routine settles, a professional network forms around that context, and the distance from your field grows. After a few years, the market stops reading your earlier history and sees only your most recent experience.
The five steps to rebuild
1. Rebuild your professional identity. 2. Translate your experience for the local market. 3. Define direction before touching the resume. 4. Position value, not tasks. 5. Turn access into conversion. These steps don't work in isolation — they need to work together, as in the Career Wizards Method: Clarity, Positioning, Market Access, and Conversion.
