You both were absolutely fantastic. Your insights and experiences has been very useful. Thank you for sharing detailed information about the job market, networking, accommodation all needed for smooth onboarding
While it seems the most important discussion with your career counselor evolves around gathering as such information as one can about job market and open opportunities, the much needed motivation by giving examples, reassuring and validating one's current approach and most importantly telling the truth "it's tough but you will get that one call if you're persistent with your efforts" often gets undervalued. I got all those and some useful pointers from Simson in the session I had few days back. I believe I would get the desired result, which is a job for my friend, by following his instructions and the approach he explained. I will definitely recommend this career counselling among my friends and acquaintances who may need it.
