Default Career Change & Career Counselling

Has anyone looked into Career Counselling to facilitate job change.

I have been in the same industry for 20 years and am looking for a change. I am interested in leveraging my skill set to other industries, but having been in the same industry for years struggle on where to start.

If you want to chat let me know. I don't charge and maybe I can point you in the right direction.

Some Whitey Bulger-esque type thing would actually be pretty fun!

I don't think I have ever spoken to anyone who had definitively benefited from professional career counselling.

Not to suggest that I consider it to be completely useless. It's a good idea for high-school kids to talk to career counsellors and take some aptitude tests to help them decide what they are better suited for, if they are unsure about choosing an education and career path.

But, the fact remains, I have never heard anyone in any field of work recommending career counselling, because they've used it and were happy about using it.

Just an observation; not trying to generalize. Others may have different feedback.

Beating an 80 year old man to death with a padlock in a sock?

Jesus man, the MC life has really turned you south. That's a terrible choice in new careers.
