Career Solutions - Career Discovery, Job Search, Resume Writing and Assessments

Coach Joan's Job Search Program

I designed my Job Search Essentials program to assist you in speeding up your search so that you can get a satisfying job with the highest amount of pay in the least amount of time possible. You probably already know that a typical job search takes 3-6 months if you are clear on your target and much longer if you are not. That is a very long time and a very costly process! I have created this program based on my extensive experience and knowledge both assisting real job seekers with their searches and actually hiring over 1,000 people at all levels in the corporate world. I will help you by teaching you the job search skills you need to learn, by giving you effective job search tools and by providing you effective, real world guidance every step of the way.

These programs are designed for people who have a clear sense that they are not needing to change their career (their profession, the basic kind of work they do) right now but rather, find the job they want in the least amount of time. If you feel you are not sure if you want to stay in your current career and may be interested in a career change, you should take a look at Coach Joan’s Career Discovery Programs as they are designed with career discovery and change in mind under the yellow Career Discovery button above. If you know the job titles you are going for and just need help speeding up your search, then Coach Joan’s Job Search Essentials Program is for you. Information about Resumes is under the green Resumes & Assessments button above.

Ward Briggs, Business Manager

“When I was all of a sudden in the job market after several years, I was at a loss when it came to marketing myself. I met Coach Joan at a job fair and felt a connection immediately. I starting attending her weekly job club and also hired her as a job coach using the "Get Hired Now!" program. She has the unique ability to both show compassion for each persons struggles and push job seekers to stay on task and not wallow too long in their misery. I find myself once again looking for a job and I still feel like I can go to her for advice and everything that she taught me last year has been recalled for this search. She is amazing!” August 1, 2007Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity
