Career Coaching for Graduates (and Not So Recent Graduates)

Regardless of their college major, some are still unsure what they want for a career. You too?

Campus-based career coaching is typically free, but t doesn't always meet a student's needs. Even then, after graduation, that support has an end date.


Looking for find a career coach to jumpstart your professional journey? I provide college graduate career coaching to uncover not only your interests, but also your personal and work values, which are critical predictors of long term satisfaction after you pick a career. For example, let's say you're considering a role in advertising. During career coaching you might clarify for yourself that integrity, honesty, and making a difference are motivating drivers for you. This awareness could be pivotal. For example, you might love a job in advertising, working in-house for a brand you admire or a not-for-profit you personally care about. At the same time, you might be really unhappy in an agency job, working on a string of projects for clients who sell things in which you have no interest, and care nothing about. Imagine how you might feel about "advertising" altogether, after a year or two in the wrong type of organization. A career coach for college students and graduates helps you identify and leverage your life values and work values together, to help you pick a career and type of organization providing you the best odds of long term job satisfaction.
