"When we first met, I was lost on my career journey, stalled in my current job search, and skeptical about the whole coaching thing. From the first conversation though, I knew Sarah was not only capable, but likely the person best suited to get me back on track and into a job that was right for me."
"I was struggling with my job search. Sarah helped me with my job search and prepped me for interviews. After a long search and hard work, I was able to find a position that I have been extremely happy with for the past two years. Sarah has been a huge part of my success."
"Sarah makes an effort to really know and understand her clients. Not just through intake forms or paper work, but really talking about my life, history, and core values. This human-centered approach helped me to better understand who I want to be with regard to both my career and personal life."

The best career coaches help you figure out what careers/jobs will be a great fit, then prepared you with practical guidance on navigate the job search process to get yourself in front of hiring managers. They help you identify and overcome mental obstacles and barriers that are holding you back. They provide timely suggestions, best practices, and strategies to plan and execute a search that will help you land the job you want.
The most common reason people hire a career coach is that after 3 months or more of job hunting, they are not getting results on their own. A coach will help you diagnose the issues and offer strategies that have been proven to work. A career coach can help when you don’t know what path to take and you want to make sure your next role is a good fit. Career coaches are also very useful if your interview skills are rusty, or you need support with networking.
At Avarah, we also work with clients who want to make a career jump, they know they could be doing more and earning more.
You can. And it will be harder and take longer. A good job search (meaning one that lands you in a role where you can thrive) takes strategy and planning. Too often we start working with clients who’ve been trying on their own for months, only to miss opportunities and connections because they were not using the best approach.
The best career coaches offer a combination of skills and experience. These should, at a minimum, include education/certifications in the use of career assessment tools, personal experience in hiring/HR roles, and a deep understanding of the hiring process, along with a commitment to staying on top of job market trends and best practices. Most important they should have a track record of success and a proven system that has helped clients achieve their desired goals.
I started Avarah Careers because I recognized the need for a service like this – at every stage of life. If you’re trying to do this by yourself and not getting the results you want, I can help. Contact me at sarah@avarahcareers.com with any other questions you have.
