How to aim for this career
1
Build trust, not just knowledge
People choose this career for the person, not the software. Work on communication, empathy and reliability early.
2
Get real time with real people
Volunteering, part-time work and clubs all build the skill this job actually needs: being good with people, in person.
3
Let AI handle the paperwork
Use it to speed up the admin around the role, so there is more time left for the part only a person can do.
