Career decisions can be tough. Working with a career coach can them easier.
We all know how it feels when we’re struggling against the odds. That’s often when professionals think about engaging a career coach.
But the most strategic career decisions are made in the long term when the winds are in our favor.
It’s during those times when working with a deeply experienced career coach who is “on your side” and objective can bring depth and efficiency to career growth.
I’m Jared Redick, a career coach, executive résumé writer, and former executive search consultant for retained executive search firms in New York and San Francisco. I’ve spent my career helping professionals position themselves for career growth for more than 25 years.
“I got more out of our first hour, than with ten hours from my last executive coach.”
I’ve helped professionals ranging from public company board directors to recent MBA graduates strategically advance their careers—providing insights on career strategies that significantly impact their professional trajectories.
Reality-focused career coaching
Because my work focuses primarily on telling professional stories where the written word needs to be defensible, my approach tends to be less about “finding the color of one’s parachute” and more about substantiating what’s actually possible, and why.
After all, careers don’t grow based solely on how we feel. They often grow because a company needs our expertise, and they’ll compensate us well for it
This flies against traditional career coaching, where the prevailing opinion is that one just needs to settle on a new direction, secure a new certification, and show up with a can-do attitude.
In reality, it’s far trickier once a professional has any real expertise under their belt. Not impossible. Tricky
