What Is a Career Coach?

A career coach is a trained professional who provides expert advice, support and guidance to those who are seeking career success. They can also be a sounding board for career advice during your career transition and job search process. A career coach will empower you to reach your career goals and will challenge you to do your best. A career coach is an objective observer and listener who can provide you with insights more clearly. They will help you learn to succeed and unlock your potential to maximize your performance. An effective career coach will give you a competitive advantage by providing expert advice in areas such as interviewing, promotion/advancement techniques, networking, job search strategies, and negotiating.

“Melva provided coaching services for my employer, for an employee who initially was not a willing participant, but through Melva’s style and professionalism he changed to looking forward to their sessions. We do not view Melva as a consultant, but as a strategic business partner.”
