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!

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.
