Job Transition
Whether you find yourself in a period of job transition intentionally or unintentionally, finding new employment requires a critical skill set that's often underdeveloped — even the most successful professionals struggle in the midst of job transitions. Professional life changes, while often high stakes, can also provide unique opportunities to remake your career into one that brings meaning, fulfillment, and personal growth.
Even if your goal is to simply change jobs, most clients still benefit from engaging in some career discovery activities in order to differentiate themselves in the job search process and determine their best course of action.
Our process combines the GetFive™ job search methodology with JWJ Consulting's curated, industry-proven executive coaching tools.
Transition clients can also gain access to the robust and extensive Career Insider Program with GetFive™ at JWJ Consulting's discounted rate.
All clients receive full access to our exclusive Career Resources Library.
