Do You Need A Job Search Coach? A Seven-Step Checklist To Find Out
Mary Elizabeth Bradford
Welcome to a Career Transition podcast on Total Picture Radio with Peter Clayton Reporting. I’m delighted to have back on the show Mary Elizabeth Bradford, author, speaker, Internationally Certified Advanced Resume Writer and Internationally Certified Master Career Director with Career Directors International. You’ll find our interview titled Recession Busting Job Search Strategies in the Success Strategies Channel.
Do you need a job search coach? That’s the focus of our discussion today. I wanted to approach this topic with Mary Elizabeth for two reasons. One - there are a lot of people who've lost their jobs who've never been in this position before and don’t know where to start. Two - I want to help people understand how to go about selecting and evaluating a coach. Give the recession, and record high unemployment rates, you'll find there are many unscrupulous people preying on the fears, desperation, and isolation many job seekers experience: Facing weeks, if not months of unemployment.
A word of caution. No job search coach or employment counselor can guarantee they will find you a job matching your qualifications. Those who promote "job guarantee" schemes usually require a very hefty up-front fee. So how do you select a career coach? How much should you pay? What can you expect? What qualifications should you look for?
