How successful you are in your career directly impacts your life outside the office and usually determines the level of your material and financial security. It is the career and field of activity that primarily influence an individual's identity.

Fear of losing a stable job and the ensuing uncertainty often slow people down in their search for and change of profession, career, company, or field of activity. Even when work is not satisfying and engaging and fails to provide opportunities to develop skills and competencies, people tend to hold on to this "stability." In the long run, this is always a losing path.

Career counseling is important as it expands your vision of possible career scenarios. It also helps you better understand the job search tools and methods in your field of activity and considerably expedites this process.
