What sets you apart in the job search?​

We use a similar process of identifying and then conveying strengths as it relates to career advising or searching for a new job.

We help our clients understand why they’re valuable and then help them convey that information to potential employers.

Further, with our unique insight into the state of various industries that we’ve honed through advising students on potential career paths, in conjunction with our advisers’ combined decades experience in the job market, our career advising is based on accurate and relevant data points.

How Does Our Process Work?

Just like applying to an educational program, our career advising is comprised of 4 main steps:

Step 1: Self-Discovery

Not as esoteric as it sounds, the self-discovery phase helps job seekers figure out who they are, what they’re good at, and where they’d like to be. This process can be fairly straightforward, requiring a session or two, or it can be a longer, more involved process. Either way, this crucial step pays dividends down the line. You cannot effectively get where you’re trying to go if you don’t know where you’re going or if you don’t know how you’ll get there.

Step 2: Planning

Your road map for success. Once a client has a decent idea of their strengths and weaknesses, and has drafted a set of requirements for their ideal job or career, it comes time to insert this information into a Personal Strategic Plan. Goals are fine, but they’re nothing if they’re not effectively acted upon. We help out clients put together a timeline for their job search, define the parameters for success, clarify expectations, and explore potential pitfalls. This planning process is comprehensive and allows the implementation stage to work more smoothly.

Step 3: Implementation

Where the rubber meets the road. Since we’ve done our due diligence in steps one and two, we can easily begin the process of helping a client find a new or better job, or change careers completely. Concretely, we help clients effectively and succinctly describe their strengths and career experiences in a resume, draft compelling intro letters, and revamp their LinkedIn page. We teach them importance of working their network, digging up job leads, and setting appropriate expectations for their future employers. We also use proven strategies to help clients prepare for interviews and teach them to negotiate the best possible salary.

Step 4: Follow up

Getting your dream job isn’t always as easy as sending out a few resumes and acing the interview. Finding the right position that pays the right salary can be a lengthy process that sometimes needs tweaking. We act as an ongoing resource for our clients before, during, and after the process of applying for jobs.

Educational Dreams

A Reality.

Austin Admissions Consulting and American Admissions were founded to make the college admissions and graduate school application process easy, affordable, and fruitful for students and parents.

I worked with Sean McCormick throughout the summer of 2016 in order to prepare for the GRE. When I first came to Austin Admissions Consulting, my scores were very low. After only a few weeks of tutoring, my score increased dramatically. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking to improve their test scores.
