As we go through different phases or life stages in our life, we will find that our career journey will constantly be in a state of change. Like how we have regular, yearly health checks with our medical doctors, as working professionals, we also need to have regular career health checks.
In these career health checks, we take stock of our career goals and make decisions that align with our life priorities. Our life priorities naturally change over time and are greatly influenced by the events that happen in our life, depending on both our age/life stage or even depending on where we are in our career.
Career counselling (also called career coaching) is a structured process to help us gain self-awareness of our values, interests, personalities, strengths and vulnerabilities. The objective of career counselling is to enable us to arrive at an insight to our own priorities and professional goals, so that we are able to make informed career-related choices and decisions.
Working with a career counsellor can also help you on a self-actualising journey toward higher performance and personal effectiveness, as well as guiding us toward a more fulfilling career. At T&A Careers, we take a holistic approach in facilitating your understanding of yourself and your life circumstances, as well as your current job and work environment. We then work collaboratively with you to set your career goals and map out constructive pathways in your career transition or advancement.
Our career counselling programs consist of multiple sessions of hour-long consultations with our Career Counsellor, Dr Timothy Hsi. The length of a program is typically between four to six sessions, depending on your goals and the coaching material to be covered.
