7+ Benefits of Hiring a Career Coach

Have you ever considered hiring a career coach? I know that many soft spoken women have lost faith in them, but they are a great way to get your life back on track, and more. If you're on the fence about hiring a career coach, take a look at this article taken from novoresume and decide for yourself if they could be the push you need.

There’s no doubt that hiring a career coach is a big (and costly) decision, which is exactly why you should be as informed as possible before making the big decision. 

In case you’re still on the fence, here are the top 8 benefits of hiring a professional career coach:

  1. Learn in-demand skills. Job market needs are constantly changing. You might not always know what the most in-demand hard and soft skills in your industry are, but career coaches with years of experience in HR do and can lead you in the right direction. 

  2. Create a relevant resume. Creating a job-winning resume takes more work than just listing your work and education, and for most people it’s a struggle. With the help of a career coach, however, you can create a resume that highlights your strengths and accomplishments

  3. Build confidence. You might be a soft-spoken, mid-level professional who has lost sight of their value or a recent graduate who hasn’t gained confidence yet. In any case, a career coach can give you a new perspective on your abilities. 

  4. Make informed decisions about your career. Should you quit that job you hate now or after you have a new job lined up? Should you start your own company while still working part-time, or just straight-up quit?? A career coach can help you map out your career steps. 

  5. Set goals that will lead you to your aim. You might know exactly where you want to go with your career, but chances are, you don’t know the exact steps you need to take to get there. Career coaches can help define these steps to your career destination and give soft spoken professionals guidance on how to take them.

  6. Build connections. Most career coaches have vast networks of professionals which can really come in handy to your career in many ways. From building professional connections to finding potential business partners or investors, career coaches can really help you upgrade your network.  

  7. Start a career in a new field. Whether you’re a recent-graduate or a senior professional looking for a change, getting into a new field can be intimidating. A career coach can help build your confidence, define your value and ace the job-searching process. 

  8. Prepare for work interviews. Job interviews are arguably the toughest part of landing a job (even for the most social butterflies). Most career coaches have HR or recruiting experience and can help you polish your interview skills. 

  9. Help craft your personal brand. Personal branding is an effective way to set yourself apart and build trust with prospective clients or collaborators, but finding our personal brand is not the easiest process. Career coaches are trained to help with that.
