After that, they offered me a job teaching high schoolers biology for two years at a public school in Baltimore.
They helped me highlight my transferable skills on my résumé, such as my leadership skills, public speaking and using tools such as PowerPoint and my initiative.
I landed an interview for a job working as a government contractor.
In preparation, I copied out my résumé and highlighted transferable skills for the role.
I worked in the contractor role for eight months until I saw a job I wanted at Deloitte.
