We work so hard to achieve the job title we have (or at least some of us do). In the big scheme of things a job title is just that- a title. What does it really mean? Does it convey all we can do? In order to avoid the trap of assuming your job title tells prospective employers what you know how to do, Barbara Kessler will discuss the value of transferable skills. What are they? How do you convey their relevance in your resume? Why are they important to your work, now and in the future?
