We’ve all been there - feeling stuck or feeling like something is missing in our career. Sometimes we want to start our own business, sometimes we just flat out hate our jobs and sometimes we love what we do but we just need better opportunities. 

Whatever the case may be, hiring a professional can be one of the best things you can do for yourself. Not only have they done it themselves (most of the time), but they know the tools and tricks to get you the job quicker and most likely, into a job that you’ll love. 

But with all of the career roles out there, how do you know which one to hire?

Career transitions aren’t always easy but they go so much smoother when you have the right support during the way. That's why I am going to discuss 3 roles that help professionals during a career transition.

Now that we have that addressed, it’s time to jump in.

Career Counselor / Career Services Provider

I will start off with a Career Counselor or a Career Services Provider. 

FYI I will use Career Counselor vs saying both Career counselor or Career services provider as they are both the same thing, the only difference is a career counselor has a background in psychology. 

A Career Counselor is someone who provides you information and advice to help you find a job. They take an educational approach, using....
