Job Search Coaching

With a decade of Corporate and Executive Recruiting experience,and a vast network of staffing professionals, Jason is the ideal career coach to help you strategically manage your job search. In this economic climate, practical, short-term career coaching focuses on the urgency required to find a new job. Job searching will get you through your job search with more velocity and success. It will help you manage stress, maintain high energy and a positive attitude, which are all integral to success in the market. Marketing oneself through personal and professional networking, as well as taking advantage of social networking sites such as Facebook and LinkedIn, are no longer an option. It’s so important to have a “leg up” in this competitive job market. There is no reason for anyone to embark on a job search, especially in this market, alone.

Job search coaching includes:

• Determine a clear focus for your job search
• Develop or fine tune your marketing plan and personal brand
• Learn how to uncover the “hidden” job market
• Strategically communicate your experience, skills, talents, and unique contributions.
• Develop and execute a networking plan personal, professional and web-based) to pursue the “hidden” jobs
• Write or fine-tune collateral materials such as resume, cover letter, websites and emails
• Interview techniques, including verbal and non-verbal communication
• Effective job offer negotiation

Job Satisfaction Coaching

Many people have relatively stable jobs but find themselves to be unfulfilled.. This time period, given the economy, may not be the best time to jump ship. However, it is a terrific time to evaluate what isn’t working and make changes that are possible within your current job or organization to increase your level of satisfaction. A surprising number of people stay with the same employer, even when they have other job opportunities, because they have made positive and fulfilling changes to what had been a stale, awkward or uncomfortable job situation.

• Job satisfaction coaching includes:
• Evaluate the obvious and not-so-obvious reasons for job dissatisfaction
• Clarify your goals, talents and skills
• Develop strategies to increase your value, visibility and impact in the current organization
• Learn the skills to “manage your boss”
• Identify what can be changed and what cannot be changed
• Begin to strategize your next career move

“I met Jason under a difficult circumstance — losing my senior level job and being unemployed for the first time in my life during the worst economy of our generation’s lifetime. Jason’s coaching did several things for me. First, it provided me clarity of understanding on what happened and how to cope with the situation and turn it into a unique positive — an opportunity to start anew under my terms and conditions. Secondly, strategizing with Jason helped me to develop new skills and confidence in positioning myself in the marketplace. Then I had the good fortune to have 3 job offers to choose from and Jason helped to balance the pro’s and con’s of each so that I made the right choice. Jason was a condfidant, a sounding board and someone who was there to help me find my way and helped me to take a difficult situation and turn it into a situation that I owned so that it did not own me.”
