Because of how we work when supporting our clients, we have a very unique “glimpse” into how over 5000 Executive Search companies and 20 000 decision makers react – the majority of which being located in Europe – that’s how many people our clients have contacted in the last 5 years; and we collect and analyze how they respond; and we observe if and what kind of trends there are to leverage them into better career management & more effective job search methods.

Before there are trends, there are signals which we usually keep to ourselves. But these are not usual times, so we decided to share these signals by the end of each week. If the country / context is important, we’ll add them. Otherwise we’ll keep it general for confidentiality.

This is an initiative of (career) consultants and coaches who proficiently work in English & are independent from each other. Why? Because everyone reacts differently to crisis situations and it is worth remembering that we are not alone. For who / when:
– You are afraid of losing your job.
– You want to prepare for potential changes on the market.
– You are already looking and it is not working.
– You want to prepare a solid Plan B.
– You need support with your CV / LinkedIn profile.
– You just want to talk about what is going on.

Here is a list of consultants / coaches with whom you can schedule a 30-minute session that is free of charge. Although everyone is rather a generalist, we are adding areas of specialization to make it easier:

“100 sesji po 30 min za free” – to wspólna akcja od siebie niezależnych doradców i coachów (kariery). Po co? Bo każdy inaczej reaguje na sytuacje kryzysowe i warto pamiętać, że nie jesteśmy sami. Dla kogo / kiedy:

– Chcesz się przygotować na potencjalne zmiany na rynku.
– Już szukasz i nie wychodzi.
– Chcesz przygotować solidny Plan B.
– Potrzebujesz wsparcia z CV.
– Szukasz wskazówek do swojego profilu na LinkedIn.
– Chcesz po prostu przegadać, co się dzieje.
– Chcesz ocenić swoje szanse (i potencjał zarobkowy) w nowych realiach.

Udostępniamy listę doradców / coachów, z którymi możesz się umówić na 30-minutową bezpłatną sesję. Mimo to, ze każdy pracuje na całym rynku, podajemy obszary specjalizacji dla łatwości:

Unsurprisingly, the most common question of the last couple of days that we’ve received:

What shall I do with my job search in light of the coronavirus?

Note: you can download this blog post as a nicely formatted .pdf here.

When we work with our clients, we focus on them – not us. As a result, when one of our consultants do share something, the main reaction is, “Oh, really? I didn’t know!”. We will, therefore, do better! :)

Working from home has been our modus operandi – as a trial since late 2012, as a permanent solution since 2013. We have learned to work “whenever and wherever” and are more than happy to share how we make remote work work. This is a collaborative post by our team of 20+. (Btw, if you want to see how we take advantage of our location independence on a daily basis, click here.)

What is “normal” for us, might be new for you. Here’s how we tackle the topic. Some tips might seem obvious, some funny or even weird, but at the end of the day, what’s most important: it works!
