Leadership

Organisations are seeking leadership qualities in candidate. Leadership is much more than a title or a designation. It is about possessing and conveying the right attitude and cognitive ability towards finding solutions to business issues, the ability to have vision and blue sky thinking – Thought Leadership.

Learn to develop and harness your leadership, one of the most sought after skills.

Communication

The ability to communicate effectively and impactfully is central to a successful job search and career transition. Communication has many aspects – written, verbal, presentation, listening, comprehension, body language, judgement, negotiation, connecting, engaging, building relations – all are severely tested during most hiring processes.

As you are seeking career breakthrough, learn how to pitch and articulate your story, achievements and ideas effectively – another key skill employers actively seek.

Confidence

Achieving confidence begins with knowing your own self and being comfortable with who you are.

Confidence is a much sought after candidate quality that enables employers decide who they should pick for their vacancy. Confidence has many building blocks. Spend time reflecting on your strengths and accomplishments and make a list of qualities that distinguish you as a unique person.

Resilience

One word defines and exemplifies resilience in individuals – Grit – possessing an optimistic, positive approach to all aspects of life and an undying self belief.

During the recruitment process, employers focus on understanding your approach to work, to handling pressure, difficult situations, complex problems and resilience is a key factor in the decision making process to hire.

Coaching for Skilled Migrants in Australia – to achieve the breakthrough

Most skilled migrants arriving in Australia, not aware of the market conditions prior to departure.

Only upon arrival do they learn how different and competitive the Recruitment process is and are also confronted by a lack of Australian experience (local experience).

As a result, you may waste valuable time and money on arrival and cause yourself a lot of unnecessary stress.

Through the coaching program, you will learn to achieve the desired breakthrough faster and with much less stress.

You may avail the coaching services prior to even departing for Australia for optimum results.

You may have landed in Australia with the visa secured, high hopes and aspirations, and are now struggling to secure interviews, let alone the right opportunity.

You may be coming across hurdles that include being told that you lack ‘local experience’ and ‘local referees’, poor or no response for all the applications, put together painstakingly. Receiving no constructive feedback from anyone and lack direction in general as to how to go about securing the elusive first breakthrough in Australia.

What clients say…

I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Raj at a very early stage of my career in Australia about 11 years back. His deep market expertise along with his pure and simple willingness to help have been an absolute rock for me through different stages of my career here so far.

He taught me to never settle for less then what I am worth, and for that, I will be forever grateful to him.

HR Professional

What stands Raj out from others is his approach towards the problem. He is an avid listener, who gives you his 100% and points out the basic things which one may overlook. Most of all he encourages you to be positive.

Business Intelligence

I most highly recommend Raj as a career coach and mentor. I was very frustrated trying to move into a new role, and knew my skills and capability weren’t the issue.

Raj used a lot of wisdom, insight and patience so I could re-frame my experience and then present myself to communicate my capabilities and value in a new light. It was a matter of time, from that point, things started to work in my favour.

Senior Technologist

I met Raj when I was finding it challenging to enter into Australian job market after migrating to Melbourne from India. Meeting Raj was my pivotal movement because he guided me how to:

Build Résumé. || Approach Recruiters || Network || Crack Interviews || Build Relationships within the organization

That helped me to secure back to back to work contracts in Australia. Since then, I’m actively working with him because I know as a coach, he plays a vital role in my career and help me continuously to progress in my professional journey.

Thank you, Raj, for all your support, guidance and adding overall value to my life

Finance Professional

I first met Raj when I had already been in Melbourne for two months trying to break in to this market for BA roles with no luck.

Raj came highly recommended and when I met him I was instantly convinced that he was the right person to guide and mentor me towards my career success in Australia.

I have to say that he is a great mentor and coach! Very innovative in analysing situations from different perspectives, with an ability to build confidence in yourself when you most need. He has helped me grow as an individual even though I was at a career crossroads and I must say he has contributed significantly to who I am today as a professional.

Raj structures his communication in a simple and easy to understand manner and I believe his principles are invaluable to my career and my professional relationships.

Raj especially took the time to understand my background, aspirations and requirements and provided me with customised solutions and support, and was somehow always magically available to provide me with any support that I required, professional or personal.

As a result I have landed my role in Melbourne, at the right level thanks in large to Raj’s guidance and support. I highly recommend Raj to anyone who is looking for mentor in self-development and career development, especially for their first break in Australia
