Taking a radical change of career direction might not seem like the easiest or most practical of moves in a recession. Indeed, the priorities of many of the UK's 2.47 million unemployed people will be to try to find any work they can. But for some, redundancy can also provide the chance to start over and pursue the career you always dreamed of.

If you are thinking of changing career but are unsure of which direction to focus on or how to make the first move, our panel of experts, including Selina Barker from Careershifters.org, Ravi Soni from the Careers Advice Service and Justin Culver from Career Energy, will be on hand to answer your questions from 1pm on Thursday 17 September.

Post your questions below – advice is for guidance only. For further general information on changing career, visit Directgov's online advicepages.
