Career Exploration

Service Description

To book this session please send an email to alaina@askalaina.com with your availability and whatever is on your mind that you are looking for help with so we can schedule our meeting and I can provide the most assistance possible during our Zoom or phone call! After this session, you will have greater clarity around your goals and next steps. If you are thinking: - I feel stuck in my current job, but I'm not sure what else out there for me or what is best for me? - What can I do with my degree? - What do I want to do with my life? Then this personalized session is for you! We will discuss what you like, what you don't like, what you have done, and what you might like to do. We will go over strategies to not just learn more about yourself and what's out there that could be a good fit for you, but also how to actually find and get those jobs or opportunities! Whether you are figuring out a career path while looking for a job, considering where to go college or what to major in, evaluating if you should go to graduate school and what program to pursue, or if you are exploring options as you plan a career transition, you will leave this conversation with more insight about your interests, values, skills, personality preferences, and motivations, so that you can identify what paths may be meaningful to you. If you are exploring career paths to be ready for a job search or career change, then we will review occupations of interest and strategies to learn more about them, so you are ready to make an informed, confident career decision and have the skills to engage in this process again as you evolve and are ready for your next career step. If you are a current student or graduate who is thinking about or actively applying to graduate school, then we will speak about schools/programs of interest and strategies to learn more about them, so you have an organized, clear sense of direction about what specific next steps to take. During this meeting, you will learn more about the paths that interest you. We will research your options together and I will provide you with tangible next-steps, so you can move forward with gathering information about and making connections with the occupations, colleges and majors, or graduate school programs that interest you. After this meeting, I will send you a detailed follow-up email with specific next steps and resources! This service is conducted over Zoom or phone. You will receive an email with the Zoom link.
