Interview Coaching
Fairfax, VA
Once I’m oriented to the basic responsibilities and people I will be working with, what will be the top two or three priorities for me, and how will my success in achieving them be measured? Most job descriptions list a wide variety of responsibilities for the prospective employee. This question seeks to narrow the list and identify what management will be most closely looking at in their new employee’s performance. You need to pay close attention to the answer to this question, as it will cut through the generalizations and clutter contained in most job descriptions. As for the measurements of success, they should ideally be as concrete and quantifiable as possible, rather than resting on the boss’ subjective evaluation. During my career, I was able to rise to the top of the advertising industry. Here, I developed the marketing know-how needed to understand how one effectively markets themselves for a job. I’ve also interviewed many candidates during my career, making me an excellent coach. For interview coaching services in Fairfax, VA, call me today. My interview coaching can help anyone, even those who are shy or inexperienced, to speak well and nail the interview every time.
Resume Coaching
Fairfax, VA
To find success in your career, you need to present yourself correctly with a professional profile. Using your resume and LinkedIn profile, you can display professionalism while also emphasizing the results and achievements from your career. Even without an incredible history of impressive career achievements, the right wording and presentation can help to create the impression that you have made an impact at your job. As an experienced marketing professional, I can help you do just that. With LinkedIn, don’t think of the platform as a form of social media. It’s important to understand that LinkedIn is a valuable business tool that allows you to network with a large variety of business professionals who can give you valuable insight into your career path. I can help you to take advantage of the benefits of LinkedIn and improve your resume to land your dream job.
Career Transition Counseling
Fairfax, VA
Are you feeling stuck in your current career? Do you lack the motivation for your job that you once had? Perhaps your job is going well, but you want to move up the ladder. Is it time for a raise, but you aren’t sure how to approach your boss? What roadblocks are affecting your goal of a promotion? Do you lack certain educational requirements for your dream job? If you relate to these questions, I can help you make the right decisions. I have helped many hundreds of clients feel more satisfied with their career, receive the raise or promotion they deserve, and develop the confidence they need to advance further in their careers.
Job Search Coaching
Fairfax, VA
If you’re looking for the right career path, it’s important to first identify and understand your career desires and goals. Think about these questions: Are you searching for job opportunities in the right way and in the right places? Do you need help in identifying what you really want from a career? Is it the right time to change jobs? Are there things you can be doing to make your current job more satisfying (or less frustrating)? If any of these questions apply to you, contact me. My career path has included major shifts and significant life changes that now give me the experience to help guide others through career choices with career counseling in Fairfax, VA.
Professional Networking
Fairfax, VA
Networking is five times more likely to result in a job offer than is sending resumes and is undoubtedly the single most important tool in the job hunter’s kit. However, you may be surprised at the degree to which “networking” was assumed to be only about seeking a job… period. In fact, networking is a process that is (or should be) used in many different ways and at many different career steps/stages. Contact me today to schedule a career counseling session focused on professional networking in Fairfax, VA.
