このコンテンツについて

Zakiya's debut book Dump Your Degree is a practical guide for thinking beyond academic credentials as you pursue a new career. And she’s followed her own advice, transitioning from the professoriate (with a PhD in religious education) to full-time author.

We delve into her methodology through a step-by-step example of:

  • considering different work after or during grad school
  • reflecting on and discovering your natural interests, unique talents, and in-depth knowledge
  • translating these abilities into relevant full-time, freelance, and self-employment roles 
  • networking and creating content to highlight your expertise and create your own opportunities

Like many guests have said before, it’s always easier to update your résumé and indiscriminately apply to jobs. But the success rate and job satisfaction of Zakiya’s playbook is much higher, particularly for the liberal arts crowd.
