The benefits of hiring a career coach
Happy 2023! I am not big on setting a New Year’s resolution but I do think that anything that helps you to reset and rejuvenate is a good idea. For your job search, this can be the perfect time to spruce up your application materials and work on trimming up your ever-sprawling answer to the question: “Why are you the right person for this job?”
I’ve talked about the NRG Coaching Program before. It’s ideal for you if you agree with one of the following:
Your answers to questions in an interview could be sharper but you never find the time to work on it
You’re making a career shift and don’t know how to highlight your transferable skills
You almost never look at your LinkedIn or don’t even know where to start
You haven’t applied for a job in a while
In other areas of your life, you really benefit from having an accountability buddy (like training for a half-marathon). Having someone to keep you on track during your job search can function in the same way
You are excited to look for your dream position but everytime you see a job description that is exciting, you find yourself procrastinating and not applying for the job until the deadline has passed
A lot of organizations will be posting openings soon. Don’t wait to sharpen your job search skills. You can schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation by filling out the form here or book an appointment directly with Kristin.
If you work for an organization that has an open position, tell us about it! In two weeks, we’ll send another email with a list of open positions. Our Get Hired community consists of over 2,000 people! We want to help spread the word for our friends.
And here’s our new coach! Meet Kristin Saybe:
Kristin Saybe has worked as a Recruitment Director for non-profits and progressive organizations overseeing large-scale recruitment and hiring campaigns hiring thousands of people to work in the progressive community. Most recently, Kristin was the Recruitment Director for the Outreach Team, overseeing the hiring of field directors, organizers, project directors and operations staff for GOTV efforts, voter registration and signature-gathering campaigns run on behalf of organizations such as Planned Parenthood, NARAL Pro-Choice, and the League of Conservation Voters. Kristin has extensive staff development and training experience, and is passionate about connecting people with roles and organizations where they will excel.
Currently living in Richmond, VA with her husband and two daughters, Kristin grew up in Louisiana where she developed a love for parades and cajun food. During her downtime she loves to spend time at the James River and is an avid knitter.
With Kristin’s wide-ranging recruitment and hiring experience, she can provide insight on what hiring managers are looking for and give you the edge you need in your job search. Learn more about Kristin and our coaching program on our website.
