Career Coach vs Recruiters

Episode 149 - Who to Call First When You Need a New Job: Recruiter or Career Coach?

Episode 149 - Who to call first when you need a new job: Recruiter or Career Coach?


Who to call first when you need a new job: Recruiter or Career Coach? What is the difference between recruiters and career coaches?


These are some of the questions we addressed in this interesting interview with two recruiters, which was recorded live on LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook a few weeks ago.


Career coaches differ from recruiters, but I am not sure that professionals understand the difference and the roles we each play in supporting their career progression. So listen to this episode to better understand those differences and find out what you need to know before job hunting.
