Career Composer
Gen Z deserves better career advice — from someone who knows what you’re going through and also happens to be a full-time career coach! (I’m also obsessed with music, if you couldn’t tell!)
I’m Erin, and I’m helping YOU, Gen Z professionals, write your OWN career story. I’m giving you the job search and career advice you need to GET THAT JOB, but we’ll also talk about finding your rhythm at work, how to balance our personal and professional lives, and figure out what we’re MEANT to do.
Career advice doesn’t have to be boring or outdated, and as a fellow Gen Z, I’m here to give you the career advice I would want for myself! We can build successful careers we’re proud of — AND stay true to who we are.
Ready? Let’s go.

Overnight Sensations: How to Break Into a New Industry
Overnight sensations exist because one day, no one knew about them. And the next day? They blew up. That doesn't mean there weren't YEARS of hard work and challenges they had to overcome to FINALLY make it in their industry!
You might not get your dream job overnight, but IT IS TOTALLY POSSIBLE to change industries! Erin shares EXACTLY how to do it in this episode of Career Composer.
We Cover:
- Knowing your WHY: Why are you making a career shift?
- How to brainstorm job titles and discover hidden roles by task using LinkedIn and Boolean searches
- Resume and cover letter strategies that make your experience (and your WHY) stand out in a new industry
- The importance of talking to people in your new industry. Hint: Prioritize in-person networking for stronger connections!
- Why making a lateral move (or even a step back) should be your goal when making an industry shift
- How to identify your BRIDGE. What makes you stand out?
- What “overnight sensations” in music can teach us about hard work, dedication, and preparation
Good luck!
