How do you become a job coach?
To become a job coach, you need education/training, excellent coaching skills, a niche within which to create a business and marketing plan.
While there is no specific education or training required to be a career coach, it is highly competitive. Attending an accredited program that emphasizes career or job coaching is usually the best training program.
To become a career coach, you must learn the skills found in a great coach. At the top of the list of skills is active listening. Learn how to fully concentrate, understand, remember, and respond.
Once you decide you would like to be a career coach, the next step is finding your niche. For example - Do you want to be a job coach for working mothers? Or, how about becoming a job coach for athletes, or recovering addicts, or new citizens?
Once you have your training, skills, and niche worked out, it's time to come up with your business plan. For this, you'll want to create a fee structure and decide on the specifics of your business, including:
