WorkSource Spokane and the Next Generation Zone provide an array of services to assist individuals seeking a fulfilling career, including job training, resume and interview support, and opportunities for career advancement and transition. The first step is to connect with a career coach. 

A career coach is a trained professional who provides guidance and support to individuals seeking to advance their careers, change careers, or find new employment opportunities.

Here are some of the key benefits of working with a career coach:

Clarity and focus: A career coach can help you clarify your career goals and develop a clear plan to achieve them. By understanding your values, interests, and strengths, a career coach can help you identify the career path that is best suited for you and create a roadmap to achieve your goals.

Accountability: Working with a career coach can provide you with the accountability and motivation you need to stay on track and achieve your goals. 

Career development: A career coach can help you develop the skills and knowledge you need to advance in your career. 

Networking: A career coach can help you expand your professional network and connect with other professionals in your industry. They can provide you with guidance on how to build meaningful relationships with others and offer advice on how to leverage your network to find new opportunities.

Resume and interview preparation: A career coach can help you prepare for job interviews and create a polished, professional resume that showcases your skills and experience. They can provide you with feedback on your interview skills and offer advice on how to answer difficult questions.

Increased confidence: Working with a career coach can help boost your confidence and self-esteem. By providing you with the support and guidance you need to succeed, a career coach can help you overcome self-doubt you may have about your abilities.
