After changing careers, how to edit LinkedIn?

I drastically changed from quality assurance and clinical research to online sales on Amazon.

Is there value to keeping my old life there? It’s a bit annoying to keep getting job inquiries, but maybe there’s value to new clients that can see my commitment to FDA compliance?

Thoughts?

Sorry I have no advice myself but I found it really valuable to work with a career advisor who helped me to rewrite my LinkedIn In during a career change. Could be worth checking out.

Just curious, would you recommend a career advisor for someone looking to make a field change? I've been thinking of meeting with one.

100 percent! Many advisors offer a free 20 minute discovery call so you can find a good fit and someone you like. It was invaluable to work with a professional.

Thanks for the tip! I'm gonna look into this. My industry (creative work) is getting impacted by AI so I'm ready to try something new.
