What is a Career Coach?

You may ask yourself, "What exactly is a Career Coach? What do they do? Can they be of value to me in my job search? Do I need one?" Let's explore that concept.

A Career Coach should be thought of as your job search partner. He/she is there to (1) help you explore and better define your professional competencies, (2) address personal issues impacting your career, (3) clearly identify your career objectives, (4) discuss and resolve obstacles to employment and career success, (5) guide you in developing both short-term and long-range career strategies, (6) assist you in developing, executing and managing a successful job search campaign, and (7) prepare you to competitively interview, negotiate compensation and evaluate offers. In addition, many career coaches offer services beyond the immediate job search and are available to support you throughout your career with ongoing guidance and support for long-term career planning, management and advancement.
