Finding a job can be a complicated, overwhelming, and exhausting process; and there is no shortage of conflicting advice out there on what the best way to go about this looks like. I’ve written many blog articles about my own perspective on the job search process, but here are some important things I want you to know:

  • I will treat you as a person, not a product to be sold. That means we won’t be talking about “selling yourself” or pretending to be someone you aren’t. Rather, we will focus on acknowledging your unique strengths and navigating the job search process with authenticity and intention.
  • Knowing and acknowledging your strengths, and having effective language to present them to others, is a key part of the entire job search process.
  • Developing the skills and resources to build and maintain meaningful relationships with others is crucial. The majority of jobs are never advertised, so these relationships allow access to opportunities that would otherwise be missed.

The below services are offered within the context of standard counselling sessions, at their normal rate.

Strategic Job Search Support

If you’ve ever found yourself running out of advertised job postings to apply for, you know just how frustrating the job search process can be. I can help you to target your job search and apply your efforts strategically, going beyond online job boards and working to access the “hidden job market.“

Effective Resumes and Cover Letters

Resumes and cover letters are essential documents that can be easily overlooked. I provide education, support, and targeted recommendations on how to make these important documents more intuitive and effective. I will not write your resume and cover letter for you, but empower you to create documents that reflect your authentic strengths, to help you to find work that is fulfilling.

Targeting your resume and cover letter is best done in the context of a genuine acknowledgment of your strengths, personality, and values. I will work with you to gather this information and apply it so that you have a resume and cover letter you are proud of.

Job Interview Preparation

A job interview can be the most stressful part of any job search. I can help you feel prepared by focusing on authentic strategies that acknowledge your strengths and skills through proven strategies and can even offer practice/mock interviews.
