Why it is worth it to Invest in a Career Coach

Investing in a career coach might seem like an unnecessary expense, but when you have been stuck in your job search, isn’t it worth it to invest in yourself and your career? A good career coach can provide tools, technology and perspective that could eliminate your search by 50%.

If you are not sure if you want to take the plunge and make the investment, consider these reasons on why it may be a good idea. 

Not Happy with Current Position

According to an article by Global Newswire, 7 in 10 Americans are unhappy working in their current position. Maybe you are new to the work force, or you are 5 years from retiring, but don’t you deserve to do something you are passionate about? A career coach will give you personalized advice on how to translate your passions and values into a career or position that you love.

Industry or Career Shift

A major industry shift or total change in career can be very difficult, especially if your experience dates back 20 years without change in direction. A good career coach will be able to help you break down your skills and experiences to identify how those skills can be a benefit to the new career track you wish to take.

Getting Back in to the Workforce

Circumstances like raising a family, traveling or recovering for medical reasons can all lead to taking substantial time off from the daily working grind. Whether it is seeking direction on job searching, defining your passions and finding positions that match your goals, or even assistance building a resume to address gaps in your work history, career coaches work to help provide you with proactive searching methods.

Discovering New Ideas

Working with a career coach can help you explore options you may have never considered before. Whether it is going into business for yourself or applying for positions that you never knew existed, opening these doors can provide new opportunities that may have been overlooked.
