These examples are common and the role of the career counsellor
is to work with you in uncovering what you offer, your needs, what
you want, barriers and assistance available to realising your requirements
and how you may achieve these needs.
Our approach: Career counselling
is always a tailored consultancy service focused on the individual's
need. The broad approach is broken into 4 main areas.
1) Audit of you. Before setting
off in any direction it is paramount to take stock of what you are
and what you offer. We achieve this through a series of questions
and behavioural profiling tests. This is aimed at establishing your
core skills, transferable skills, aptitude, attitude, interests,
personality, your preferred working environment, career goals, personal
achievements and your personal values.
2) What you want? What you want
is not always obvious. Part of our process is to understand this
in a format that can be applied to many roles and industry sectors.
We aim to create the ability to recognise appropriate roles to satisfy
your needs.
3) How do you get there? It is
important to understand the job market and what is available to
help you achieve your objectives. Similarly, it is equally important
to understand the barriers to progress. What are your options, how
do you find possibilities and what is the best approach to take
in pursuing them? Creating a strategic plan and monitoring this
is crucial to maximising your chances of success.
4) How do you maximise your chances of success now that you have
landed your next career step. Some of this information is
within your ability to answer now, but with skillful questioning
and the use of appropriate tools, our career counselling consultants
will enable you to unlock answers to these key questions as well
as give sound advice on the possibilities, and guide you through
the tasks that will enable you to reach realistic goals. This is
achieved through a series of one-to-one counselling sessions and
the appropriate use of formal tools as well as the wealth of experience
we offer from years of experience in both outplacement and executive
search. How long does it take? As this service is necessarily customised
for each individual, this is a variable feast. Typically, a career
counselling programme will be completed with a series of one-to-one
consulting meetings. These are not continuous, as the individual
has to complete a number of tasks before progress can be made to
the next stage. The consultant will use these for the basis of discussion
at the next meeting and as a key input for helping you create the
strategic plan. Some individuals want ongoing support and mentoring
and some do not. The choice is yours. How much does it cost? The
base programme normally runs across 5 one-to-one meetings. The cost
of this starts at £2060 plus VAT. However, as explained this
is always tailored and sometimes individuals want additional consultancy
on an ad hoc basis after the delivery of the main programme. We
can and do accommodate this as required. How do I find out more?
The simplest approach is to call and speak to us in confidence on
what you wish to achieve. Whilst you may not be too clear on this
right now, you will find that our consultants are understanding,
receptive to your needs and willing to explain where we can and
cannot help. All telephone calls are always treated in total confidence
and there is no obligation to proceed if you feel that our service
does not suit your needs. Contact details Contact
