Career Consulting

What is a a Career Consultant?

Career consultants are professionals who help match the abilities and goals of specific individuals with opportunities to work in a given field or industry. Career consulting usually involves assessing the skills of the client, identifying strengths and weaknesses, and assisting in the process of successfully launching a career that is both personally rewarding and financially lucrative.

“Your life is about the continuing expression of who you truly are.”

-Abraham Hicks

Why use a Career Consultant?

There are a number of reasons why utilizing the services of a career consultant is desirable. Young people who are emerging from college may find that career consultants can give the job search process a degree of focus that would be difficult to achieve otherwise. By evaluating the skill sets of the young adult, a competent consultant can quickly identify potential employers who are likely to have openings that would appeal to the individual. As a result, the client is able to secure work quickly and begin building a career without the need to spend a lot of time deciding exactly how to go about using that recently earned degree to best advantage.

Gina’s Approach to Career Counseling:

Gina has a true passion for guiding others to identify their intrinsic motivations and align that with a path that is both sustainable and fulfilling. Her approach is unique as it is based on 20 years of interviewing and working with both candidates as a hiring manager and students as an admissions officer, career counselor, and educational consultant. Combined with her studies in psychology and organizational leadership, these dual roles help Gina excel at aligning the right people with the right environment and helping them align their intrinsic motivations with their work.

Gina is an excellent listener and relationship builder. People are naturally drawn to her energy, and it doesn’t take her long to put others at ease and understand their goals. This discovery process is absolutely necessary for effective coaching. Gina’s coaching is unique in the sense that it’s personalized and situational. She is able to pull from her experience, knowledge of communication styles, and various coaching models to reach each individual in the most effective way for their unique needs!
