- Career counselor, job coach, and employment consultant may sound like synonyms; however, each of these three professions plays a different role.
- Career counselors are practitioners who advise on a particular occupation and/or industry using counseling techniques. The counselor's goal is to support the clients in making complex decisions and facing difficult situations in career exploration, career change, personal career development, and other career-related issues within their occupational and/or industry expertise. Those practitioners whose occupational and/or industry expertise is limited may use sources such as the Occupational Outlook Handbook and Occupational Information Network. Among the three professions, career counselors are most beneficial for those people who make decisions on their future occupations.
- Job coaches guide employment candidates through a process of the landing of employment often without any industry and/or occupational expertise in the candidate's areas of interest. Job coaches are not supposed to know anything about your future job and how to land it, but can be helpful to suggest how to find the information and navigate through your decision-making process.
- Employment consultants provide expert advice in their particular area of the job market and/or workforce services. Among the three professions that were mentioned before, employment consultants know best about some portion of jobs and how to land them.
- However, you need to know in what area you need the consultant. No universal consultant exists.
- Mentors also know their jobs and how to land them, but they are rarely trained as consultants. Mentors possess a certain area of expertise and are willing to share this expertise with another person or persons called proteges who are willing to learn from the mentor.
