If the concept of using a coach to help you with your career seems a novel concept, many high-level professionals engage coaches to help them navigate their careers. Executive coaches help individuals to better understand their motivations, define and achieve their goals and provides advice. Wouldn’t you like to have a knowledgeable person help you do the same thing for your career?

I highly advise you to have your own support network while going through a job search. These people (and yes, it may not be the same person for all needs) can listen to your frustrations, act as guides when you need advice as well as your emotional support through this grueling process.
