what is career coaching?

A career coach’s job is to guide you, not instruct you, on how you may want your future to pan out. They keep your personal goals in mind while helping you through the process of exploring options to applying for new jobs - and at the end of the day, their role is not to dictate your path but to empower your choices. Often times, career coaching is proactive, meaning that the goal is to handle any potential hiccups or transitions before they become full-blown problems. Think of it like this: your career coach should be like a friend, but with expertise, generous industry knowledge, and an unbiased perspective. Like a friend, they are on your side - they should strive to understand your life goals and aspirations so that they can then assist you in the journey of discovering and developing a career that not only pays the bills but fulfils your heart.

There isn't a definite definition of the term 'career coaching'; it has a multitude of purposes, varying from finding fulfilment through work, reconstructing your career, advancing in your workplace, and prioritising mental health. And that being said, career coaching is for everyone.
