Career Advisory – the competence of the future

Currently, the only constant is change, and this also applies to the labor market. The data shows that advice based on knowledge about the labor market (e.g. how to write a CV or use LinkedIn) changes approximately every 2 years. In other words: tips that worked three years ago can now harm the candidate / employee. Knowledge in the field of Career Advisory is often improperly reduced to “CV formatting,” and associated only with traditional job counseling, but there is much more to it: knowledge about market trends, understanding how technology works, diagnosis of competencies and designing career paths – and these are just a few examples!

Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “Elegant Networking for job searching managers”.

With the changes on the job market, experienced managers and executives don’t have the luxury of “skipping” networking entirely. You have to do it. Professionally. Elegantly. Systematically.

– have a relatively small network / are not “natural networkers”
– feel uncomfortable reaching out to the network they have
– don’t know how to approach someone that could actually help them

We’ll also cover:
– how to audit your current network
– how to stay in touch with people you know
– how to continue building your network
– how to craft messages on LinkedIn that are inviting and don’t reek of spam or desperation
– how to “network up”

Studia podyplomowe Career Advisory – po dziewiątym zjeździe

„Proszę opowiedzieć coś o sobie”, „Jaki jest Twój największy sukces?”, „Jaka jest Twoja największa porażka? Czego Cię nauczyła?”, „Jak radzisz sobie ze stresującą sytuacją?”, „Dlaczego akurat Ciebie mamy zatrudnić?”. To standardowe pytania rekrutacyjne, które potrafią sprawić trudność.
Dodatkowo obecnie większość spotkań odbywa się online i do przygotowania merytorycznego dochodzi również przygotowanie techniczne i wizualne, czyli stabilne połączenie z Internetem, dobre światło, spokojna przestrzeń itd. Aż 90% kandydatów nie przygotowuje się przed rozmowami – idą na żywioł. Nie czytają na temat firmy, branży albo nie czytają nawet treści ogłoszenia, na które aplikowali; nie wiedzą kim jest osoba, z którą się spotykają. Przygotowanie klienta do różnych rodzajów rozmów kwalifikacyjnych to tematyka omawiana na 9. zjeździe studiów podyplomowych – Career Advisory.

Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “Executive Identity – your personal brand on the job market”.

Being aware of your personal brand and influencing it skillfully is the difference between “Who are you?” and “Thank you for being here” in your career. But it takes it even further: it’s the difference between the zeros on your paycheck. Or whether your phone stops ringing when you lose your job.

As the job market becomes more and more competitive and fierce, fully self-aware managers – who are visible – are in demand!

During this interactive meeting we’ll explain:
– what influences how you are perceived as a “high caliber” executive
– why some C-level candidates consistently receive the best-paid offers
– how not to be perceived as someone suffering from “multiple personality disorder”
– how to build your “Executive Identity” Read more →
