  I'm trying to switch careers from retail management to HR, but companies won't even give me a chance. I've taken courses, updated my resume, and even highlighted transferable skills, but I keep getting ignored. I know I can do the job, but I just can't get my foot in the door.

  Career changes can be tough because hiring managers prefer someone with direct experience. The key is to really highlight your transferable skills and explain why your background makes you a great fit. Are you emphasizing that in your applications?

  I mention it briefly in my resume, but I don't go into much detail. I do write a cover letter, but I mostly just explain why I want to switch fields. Maybe I'm not making a strong enough case for myself?

  Yeah, a good cover letter is crucial when changing careers-it's your chance to connect the dots for employers. I struggled with this too until I found https://coverlettergenerator.ai/ It helps craft a cover letter that highlights your transferable skills in a way that actually convinces hiring managers. It made a huge difference for me, and I finally got interviews in my new field. You should check it out!
