About this Event
Let's Talk Career Pivots
We all have moments that changed everything, sometimes planned, often not.
This edition of Career Story Nights is about those defining decisions, bold leaps, and quiet shifts that redirected our paths. We call them career pivots, and behind each one is a story worth telling.
Join us for an evening of true stories, human connection, and shared insight at Zoku Amsterdam. Whether you're switching industries, starting over, or just craving something new, this night is for you.
You’ll hear from professionals who’ve navigated their own career pivots, sharing what changed, what they learned, and what came next. You can also apply to be one of our storytellers and share your own experience.
Career Story Nights isn’t about polish or performance. It’s about honesty, reflection, and the power of sharing our stories. Stories are seben minuts long, shared in the firts person and about you and your experience.
