I don’t have a lot of time to decide – how long will career counseling take?

I need to get back into the workforce quickly.

I’m not sure how to focus my job search strategy efficiently.

I can get the interview but never the job offer.

Networking makes me uncomfortable.

Career questions are a lot like any other life question, but are often accompanied by a sense of urgency.  You might also be wondering:

·         Is there an ideal career for me?

·         What can I do when I’m not satisfied in my career?

·         What type of work environment would best suit me?

·         What is most important to me?

·         How do I decide what I want to do?

What does career counseling look like?

Your process of career counseling will depend on the questions you have and the goals we set.  There are three general phases of career work:  (1) Self-assessment, (3) Exploration of the world of work, and (3) Decision-making.

You can expect that we will explore your work values, interests, and personality style so that you can be grounded in self-knowledge as you take on additional tasks to help you achieve your goal.
