What is a career coach? 
A career coach can help you identify your ideal job, help with your initial job search if you’ve just graduated, and build up your resume and interview skills. By working with you one-on-one, you’ll gain the confidence to go after that promotion, position yourself for a raise, or nail an interview. A career coach can help you understand what the right career fit is for you long term, so you’re not hopping from job to job and ensure you’re pursuing a career that’s right for you.

What are the benefits of working with a career coach?
A career coach is the right fit for anyone from recent college graduates in search of guidance and direction to seasoned professionals who need the confidence to rise up the ranks. A big part of a career coach’s job is to identify your strengths and weaknesses and get a good understanding of not only who you are as a person, but also how you can excel professionally. A career coach will also help you build up your confidence and recognize your value so you’ll have a better grasp of what you want out of your career.

What are the outcomes of career coaching?
By the end of your coaching session, a career coach should provide you with all the tools you need to be successful in your pursuits. You should have a firm idea of what your strengths and weaknesses are and have a strong sense of self. You should have a clear plan of action and how to achieve the career goals you set out for yourself, and you should have developed the right skills to be able to execute on that plan. Resume writing, job searching, interviewing, and networking are all competencies that will be developed.
