External Career Coaches

The Office of Career Strategy has negotiated with a group of professional career coaches to provide assistance to Yale alums. All coaches listed have agreed to offer a 20-30 minute complementary session for Yale alums to discuss general tips for a specific career transition, as well as the state of the market in the coach’s geographical area. These coaches have experience with all stages of the career development process from entry-level careers to mid-level career transitions to senior management. The coaches advise, coach, and counsel individuals to develop and put into action decisions and plans related to lifestyles and career paths.

Strategies, techniques, and assessments used by career coaches are tailored to the specific needs and cultural/diversity considerations of the individual seeking assistance.

To access the list of External Career Coaches, log into the Yale Career Link.
