A career coach is a professional who helps individuals with their job search and provides guidance, support and advice on various aspects related to one's profession. They work with clients to identify their strengths, skills, interests and goals, and then help them develop strategies for achieving their objectives in the field of employment. Career coaches can assist people at different stages of their career, from choosing a major or deciding on a new career path, to navigating job transitions, negotiations, and leadership development. They often use assessments, one-on-one coaching sessions, workshops, and other resources to help clients make informed decisions about their careers. Ultimately, the goal of a career coach is to empower individuals to take control of their professional lives and achieve success in their chosen field.
