Consulting
Our consultants have similar professional backgrounds to the people they work with. Because of this they have a real understanding of the specific situations of our clients. They are specially trained counsellors and have many years of experience in supporting the professional development of academics. Based on an analysis of the professional biographies, specific skills and expertise of our clients, we make qualified individual assessments of their situations within the Swiss job market and assist them in developing and implementing a personal action plan.
Who are our clients?
We focus on supporting motivated people of any age who have academic or technical qualifications, as well as other well-qualified professionals.
Typical situations:
- Re-entry into the labour market
- Professional reorientation
- Developing or expanding a professional network
- Recognition of foreign degrees
- Broadening work experience (in the case of narrow specialization)
- Degree with no work experience
