Career Advisors

ReStart recommends the use of transition consultants in your job search, especially if you are changing careers or are uncertain about the path you should take. These transition consultants go by several different names, including, Job Coach, Career Coach, Executive Coach, and many others.

ReStart does not recommend or endorse any particular transition consultants, but we do recommend you speak with several and choose one with whom you would be comfortable working with.

The “search” feature in LinkedIn, Google or with your local Chamber of Commerce are excellent starting places, as well as seeking referrals from your personal network.
