The SmartTalent Difference: Career Counseling
Building a successful career is a complex task. You need to maximize your near-term opportunities, while still staying focused on longer-term goals. For that reason, career counseling can provide an enormous boost, giving you the support and insights you need to make the most out of your skills and background.
However, many job seekers think career counseling is too expensive or not available at their stage of professional development. That doesn’t need to be the case. SmartTalent lets you take advantage of this service — a major step up compared to the typical offerings delivered b staffing agencies.
Getting the Most Out of Your Career
Career counselors typically charge somewhere between $75 to $150 an hour. To take advantage of this service on your own, you would need to pay that out of pocket. With SmartTalent, that value becomes part of your overall experience.

- Assessing your strengths and weaknesses

- Upgrading your interview skills
- Teaching you how to network better
- Improving your mindset
These insights let you maximize your long-term potential. SmartTalent will help you find the best job for this stage of your career. At the same time, you’ll get the direction you need to set ambitious goals and achieve them over time.
