These professionals get to know clients’ aspirations and strengths to help them feel more confident and comfortable as they seek a new career. In many cases, they help job seekers gain the necessary training or knowledge to enter their chosen roles. Exceptional communication skills allow them to contact prospective employers on clients’ behalf, as well as support and guide the job seeker as they seek work and maintain employment.
