I am concerned about the current job
market. Can ReadyMinds provide with an advantage over other Graduate
Students? |
| |
 |
Yes. ReadyMinds can help you to create your own competitive
edge by sharpening your awareness of how to present the skills and
talents you bring to a company. Through your counseling sessions
you will gain a better perspective on the current job market and
discover how your areas of strength can make you an attractive candidate.

I went to Graduate School but now realize
that I do not want to go into the field I studied. How can I best
utilize my education and skills and apply them to something that I
am more interested in? |
| |
 |
This situation can be very challenging because graduate level education
may be fairly specialized. Our Counselors are trained to examine
skill transference, and we can assist you in making the best possible
match between your education and skills with appropriate career
fields.

I went to grad school because I did not
feel ready to enter the real world, but now I am graduating. I am
confused about applying my degree to a career. Can you help? |
| |
 |
Yes. While ReadyMinds is not a job bank or placement service,
our counselors can provide meaningful support and help in your job
search. We will assist in critiquing your resume and cover letter
as well as offer suggestions for improving your other skill sets.
Additionally, our counselors will offer valuable suggestions as
you prepare for the job interviewing process in your career field
of interest.

Is telephone counseling effective? |
| |
 |
Research indicates that telecounseling can be very effective, especially
with career counseling. In addition to providing convenience and
greater time flexibility, telecounseling tends to be more structured
than face-to-face counseling. As a result, the counselor and client
may be more focused and specific as they deal with issues and concerns.
