The Need

Most career and job seekers make career decisions without adequate information. They decide on a path that “feels” right but then find themselves in an unfulfilling job with mountains of debt from years of unnecessary education. This happens when people lack self-awareness and knowledge of the field they are entering.

Thankfully, there is a better way! When it comes to career exploration, I am committed to deepening your self-knowledge and equipping you to discover the occupations that fit with who you are! This saves you time and money by enabling you to avoid false-starts and target the careers you know you’ll love.

The Package

As the client, you receive up to 4 hours of career exploration training with a career professional:

​

First, I use a fun, relaxed, educational activity to uncover valuable information from your past and present life experiences. I listen attentively and take copious notes while you share 7 stories about your life that are related to previous accomplishments, projects, fulfilling experiences or achievements that you enjoyed. By using strategic questions and imaginative exercises, I analyze these stories to decode your core values, beliefs, interests, personal and work goals, vocational dreams, challenges, preferred activities, skills, knowledge, and attitudes.

Second, you receive a custom designed self-portrait that summarizes the results of the story analysis. I also teach you where and how to find career options which match your self-portrait and I provide you with a rubric for making informed career decisions.

Third, after you have conducted some initial career research, I then help you to decide between your top career options. I do this by training you to access the advice of experts in your fields of interest. This ensures that your career plans will benefit from the most reliable, up-to-date information!

​Fourth, after you’ve selected a career path that's right for you, we then focus on effective job search strategies. These strategies will enable you to launch your new career when the time comes to market yourself and secure job offers.
