WHAT IS A CAREER COUNSELLOR?

Your Career Counsellor will give you individually tailored coaching, guidance and advice focused on securing a new role or career. During the process you will pinpoint your values, strengths, skills and personal motivators to enable you to make informed career related decisions. You will also gain valuable insights into the assessment and selection process from an HR perspective, helping to position your application ahead of your peers.

The process is specifically designed for people who are struggling to identify a suitable career. Typically, clients fall into two categories; people embarking on their career (school leavers/graduates) or career changers. The result is that you will be able to identify and secure a career that matches your personality, interests and core strengths.
