Yo,
I’m trying to figure out the most efficient way to search for jobs (in Oslo) while transitioning from one field to another, and I suspect I may be approaching this too narrowly.
My background is in Data Science / AI / ML, but over time I’ve realized, I fucking hate coding, and I want to move away from heavy coding and highly technical implementation.
What seems more aligned is moving toward roles like:
- AI Strategy
- Product (AI Product Manager / Product Ops / Product Strategy)
- Business Development
- AI Consulting / Solutions Consulting
- Commercial roles at the intersection of AI + business
I want to keep this broad so I don’t limit my opportunities, and I have no fucking idea what I would like to do.
At the same time, I’d really like to use my AI/ML background so those years of study and work don’t feel wasted. Ideally, I’d transition into something where that knowledge is still an advantage or entry point — for example AI Strategy, AI Product, AI-related Business Development, etc
My main challenge is figuring out how to efficiently find these transition-friendly roles. So my question is:
What’s the smartest and most efficient way to search/filter for these kinds of adjacent roles?
Are there AI tools that can evaluate my background + goals and suggest realistic role matches?
How do I widen my search enough to maximize opportunities without becoming too random?
Another thing:
Because my CV is naturally filled with technical keywords, I suspect I may:
- Getting automatic rejection
- Match poorly with relevant non-technical roles due to keyword mismatch
- Get pushed by recruiters/algorithms toward coding-heavy jobs
Thanks!
