Research has shown that people who receive customized career coaching have two to five times more chance of getting a job than those who do not.
Coaching is provided by a network of certified coaches who have volunteered to help our community of job seekers. Coaching activities are included in the self-paced training, leveraging writing exercises and assessments. Studies have shown that expressing oneself in writing form can help with health, coping, and increased self-awareness. Empirically validated reflection exercises and assessments facilitate the coaching and development process. Examples of such activities include: the 5 Ways of Being, prioritizing positivity, values exercises, reflected best self, the VIA survey, CV development & LinkedIn, learned optimism, and a 30-second commercial. 1:1 in-person, video, or telephone coaching sessions are organized once job seekers have graduated from their training. The coach documents and keeps a record of job seekers’ progress until they have secured a meaningful professional job.
