What is a Career Consultant?

Career Consultants support people to move forward in their working life. Their clients may have experienced an injury or illness and need to retrain or be returning to the workforce following time caring for their family. Career consultants support people to change roles whether it be climbing the career ladder, switching industries entirely or clarifying career direction. They work in collaboration with the individual on their goals and help them to define these if they are feeling stuck.

Sometimes it’s just a session or 2 needed, or putting together an eye-catching CV or cover letter for example, and other times it’s a bit longer when there are multiple elements required. This may involve exploring and arranging retraining/upskilling and providing education around interview, cover letter and job search skills.

As you can see, the role of a Career Consultant is varied but the goal is always the same - to help people. They use their knowledge of the labour market, trends and personal marketing to support their clients to get to where they want to be in the world of work.
