Structure and accountability - A coach will set up regular coaching meetings with you (by phone or in person) and assist in developing a plan to achieve your career goals. They will create a safe environment where you are comfortable and can talk without judgment. They actively listen to what you are saying and what you aren’t saying. What are the benefits of hiring a career coach? On the other end of the career coaching spectrum are the technical job searching services such as resume writing, preparing for interviews, and developing job searching skills. On one end of the spectrum is the personal development side of career coaching that helps you answer the big questions in life such as, 'What are you passionate about?', 'What do you really want to do?', and 'What career legacy do you want to leave behind?'. A career coach may offer a range of services.
