Have you ever wished that a “job search coach” could help you find a job? Did you know that this is a specialized type of coaching? Why would you want a coach? How can that person help?
WHAT ARE YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR JOB SEARCH?
- Are you unclear about the options you can consider for your future career path? Are you also unclear on the type of job you want now?
- Maybe you don’t know what the problem is because you have diligently been looking for a new job, and nothing is happening?
- Maybe your emotions of being discouraged or afraid help make it hard to stay focused on your job search?
- Perhaps you don’t know how to put together a strategy and then an action plan to give you guidance on what to do?
- Maybe you don’t know how to connect with other people who can help? Is just the knowledge that you need to network very stressful?
- Do you spend all day working at your computer but can’t find any jobs that seem interesting and realistic for you to apply?
This is a stressful period of time if you are between jobs, particularly if you don’t have a lot of money in savings. There is an urgency to find new work. Even if you have a job, you will need to step out of your comfort zone to make anything happen.
WHAT DOES A JOB SEARCH COACH DO?
- Helps you think about your current situation for your job search ad career plans.
- Helps you put together a strategy to focus your search now.
- Introduces you to current job search techniques and resources.
- Guides you on how to connect with other people who can help. The necessity of networking can be daunting.
- A coach will give you guidance that will work – regardless of the particular job you are targeting.
It is hard to go through this process with no accountability for what you do. A coach can help you stay focused with actions you can do on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. A good coach knows how to unearth opportunities, particularly ones that can be found online. There is a lot of research that can be necessary. If you are willing to engage and stay focused, a job search coach can help you with that.
