Which of the following areas of your job search can we help you master?
We identify the job titles that best fit you by clarifying your strengths, passions, and relevant experience. Targeting the right job titles results in more interviews, more offers, and the long-term career success and satisfaction that comes from doing what you love.
Understanding how to position yourself for the job you want makes your entire search easier and more effective. We polish your personal brand so you look your best on paper and online. You feel clear and confident when applying and interviewing.
Telling a good story makes you memorable. It tells people who you are, what you do, and communicates your unique value. We help you craft your story and tell it in a way that inspires others to want to work with you.
We coach you to design a resume that targets the positions you want by identifying necessary keywords and highlights your accomplishments to prove you have the relevant expertise. Your resume will pass through applicant tracking systems and impress hiring managers.
Most people dread writing cover letters. We love writing them. We work with you to write a cover letter that makes a compelling case for why you are an excellent fit by telling stories that highlight your unique expertise.
9 out of 10 recruiters use LinkedIn to find and vet candidates. Your LinkedIn profile is key to networking and being found by recruiters and hiring managers. We give your LinkedIn profile a makeover by teaching you how to use its many features and tools to make your profile pop.
We teach you how to use and grow your network to tap into the hidden job market that contains 80% of all jobs. We give you email templates that you can use to connect with anyone. We explain how to ask the right questions to get referred to jobs. We coach you to do it in a way that feels authentic and builds genuine relationships.
We prepare you to ace your interviews by formulating your responses to the most commonly asked interview questions. If you’ve been interviewing but not getting offers, we can diagnose what’s not working and recommend the necessary adjustments. We give you the opportunity to build confidence through practice in mock interviews.
We train you on the do’s and don’t’s of negotiation strategy so you get the best offer and highest salary possible. We also give you a blueprint to follow complete with example scripts of what to say. You’ll understand your value in the marketplace and feel confident asking for what you deserve.
I wanted to let you know I landed a new job! I could not be more excited all around. I attribute this success to the time we had together, the legendary ah-ha moment, and your helpful guidance. You are truly a success story and made this career transition possible for me. I thought I would share the news, and of course now when people ask I know where to point them. 😁 Everyone I have talked to pointed out that you were truly an inflection point for me and I am forever grateful.

Emily gave me the boost I needed to continue my job search with confidence! She offered actionable guidance to help me enhance my resume, cover letter, LinkedIn profile, and overall job search strategy. As a senior recruiter, Emily was able to provide feedback through the lens of someone well experienced in the hiring process. Following the session, Emily sent additional resources for further support. I highly recommend sessions with Emily if you’re looking for feedback, actionable advice, and even moral support to help you feel confident and empowered in your job search. Thank you, Emily!!

I just attained the best job offer in a career I wanted but NEVER thought was possible, and have an outlook of renewed hope and clarity. Not like what I doing before was bad – but it was just not ME.

I was looking to make a career change. I had lots of ideas about what I could do next, but I didn’t have clarity around what I should do. Amazingly, after two months, I was on a clear career path and had a new awesome job offer which I accepted. It’s been an incredible experience.

A job search coach is a professional who helps people with any employment impediments to discover, secure, and keep fulfilling jobs. Their main responsibility is to offer individualized support and direction to their clients so they may effectively navigate the job search process, acquire job-related skills, and acclimate to the workplace.
At A Path That Fits, we are both life coaches and career coaches, and we approach careers somewhat differently. We see your line of work as a venue for you to share your gifts with the world. You may pinpoint your innate strengths and passions and use them to locate the appropriate profession with the aid of our ground-breaking career pathfinding methodology. To identify the best career coach for your needs, speak with Amanda today.
Job coaches that are successful are adaptable. When necessary, they know how to modify what they are teaching to fit the learner’s abilities or external limits. Successful job coaches are receptive to differing viewpoints. They are aware of and tolerant of personality differences.
A client may start work with a job coach to identify their fears and come up with coping mechanisms. For instance, a job coach might assist a worker who is anxious about collaborating with a new team in learning effective communication, appropriate introductions, and teamwork.
A job ‘search’ coach is more involved in the process of obtaining work or improving your current work. Our job search coaches provide guidance in areas such as job searching, skill development, interview preparation, and workplace integration, with the ultimate goal of enhancing your independence and success in the workforce.
