Careers Analysis: the Key to Career Planning - £200
When you join the gym you don’t begin by jumping on a rowing machine and blasting off into the blue. That’s the quick route to pulled muscles and a full stop to your ambitions. You start with a fitness check. This is a review of where you are, what you want to achieve, and what might stop you from getting there. Meeting a career professional is an ideal opportunity to carry out a fitness check on your career plans. Together you can discover where you are career-wise, explore your thoughts, identify possibilities and start to map the future. This is an important meeting – and as your career fitness develops you may find you want an annual check up.
To expand and develop your career plans you can choose from a series of FP electives. These are designed to build on the strong foundation of your Careers Analysis and can be fitted into times in the year which suit you best.
Workplace Personality Assessment: £250
Do you suit a corporate business, or small company? Are you a leader or a team player? Would you direct, or delegate? Are you a planner or a doer? Where do you fit in the team?
Our psychometric tool is a highly evolved and sophisticated assessment that identifies not only career ‘fit’ but also the working culture, size and environment most likely to bring you a high level of job satisfaction. It takes about 30 minutes to fill in online and the results are delivered in a detailed face-to-face debrief by a trained practitioner in the Future Prospect offices.
