Career Management and/or Career Transition

Whether you are early or mid-career, have been out of the employment market for an extended period of time, or recently relocated, you may have questions about how to identify career opportunities and market yourself to prospective employers.

Questions you could include:

• How can I hide the gaps in my resume?
• Will I have to gain additional education?
• What is my purpose?
• How do I transition into a new career path/industry?
• How do I advance in my career?

Career Management

In today’s economy, it is essential to master skills for managing your own career.

Consider these statistics:

• Of jobs started by workers at age of 33-38, 39% ended in less than a year, and 70% ended in fewer than five years.
• According to the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics, the average worker today holds nearly ten jobs before age 36.

Employment no longer depends on mastering a uniform body of knowledge, but rather an ability to learn and the skills needed to do the tasks. Jobs no longer have standard predictable titles. The contemporary culture of work is ambiguous and ever-changing. To achieve your career goals, you will continually manage your career throughout your lifetime. Adaptability and self-knowledge are key.

Career coaching can help you identify your current strengths and discover opportunities to expand your skills to position yourself strategically for your next career move. It can also help with identifying your marketable skills and areas for skill development.
