Here are some of our most frequently asked questions…

How does career coaching work?

Our process is a hybrid of coaching and consulting. As consultants we are here to give you specific, tangible advice, we have tried and tested tools, and we provide you with exercises and resources to achieve your goals. As coaches we are here to ask you the right, in depth questions to help you identify the right goals for you and the best way to achieve those goals. Some of our clients call us “career therapists”  because we advise but ask great questions, in just the right balance. You can learn more about Our Process here

How are you different from other firms?
  • We have been in business for over 25 years and specialize in career transition
  • We have a methodology that works; it’s not just about asking questions, there is a path and a goal
  • We have an easy-to-follow, holistic process that is comprehensive and ensures you cover all of your bases during your transition
  • We have highly effective materials that support your work and frame out your thinking between your calls
  • We are very flexible in meeting your needs, learning style and goals; we can shift gears anytime to address what arises for you professionally
  • We are very accessible and hands on
Why can't I figure this out myself?

Because most people don’t consider every single thing they need to take into account to identify their next career steps, make a smooth transition and conduct an effective job search. We provide those resources to organize your thinking and provide clarity about what you need to do next. Plus, having support and advice helps you not just define the right goals but enables you to achieve your goals faster. One of our clients put it best: “You may be able to get part of the way on your own, but what good is finishing part of a marathon? You need to have a coach to get all the way and finish.”

Do you have references I can speak with?

Absolutely. We have references who would be happy to speak with you. Email us for more information (admin@createyourcareerpath.com). *And feel free to view our testimonials on LinkedIn here.

What is your success rate?

We track our success rate by asking our completed clients if they got what they wanted out of their coaching. 95% of those people say yes so we are very confident in our services and know our tried and tested methodologies work.

How long does it take?

Typically, the process takes around four months but it depends on your goals, situation and the coaching package that works best for you. Our process is holistic and comprehensive: We coach you as a person, we don’t drag you through a process, and we help you define your career goals from the inside out. We set you up for long-term career success, we don’t provide a quick fix. The bottom line is: we are not a “drive-through” service. We ask people to realize that to truly be effective, this process takes time and commitment.

What results should I expect?
  • For career direction – You will know the job titles and types of organizations you want to apply to, as well as an action plan and the tools needed to secure those jobs.
  • For job search – You will have an updated, branded, SEO optimized resume and LinkedIn profile and a 6-step job search strategy, tailored to your needs, to land the job you want.
