Career Coaching

Find clarity. Move forward in your career.

I work with you to understand where you are today, clarify where you want to go, uncover the strengths and value you bring, and create a practical career action plan that reflects your goals, circumstances and aspirations.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone.

Is Career Coaching Right for You?

You don’t need to be in a career crisis to work with a career coach. Career coaching can be valuable whenever you feel that something in your professional life needs greater attention or direction.

You may be:

Feeling stuck or unfulfilled in your current career
Considering a career change
Returning to work or navigating a professional transition
Looking for a new job or opportunity
Preparing for career advancement
Moving into a leadership position

Whatever stage you are at, the right support can help turn uncertainty into a clearer, more intentional next step.

Who I Work With

My career coaching is adapted to the individual rather than built around one type of professional.

Students & Recent Graduates

Career coaching can help you understand your strengths, interests, values and aspirations so you can make more informed decisions about your professional future.

Professionals Considering a Career Change

Together, we explore your possibilities, identify your transferable strengths and create a realistic path forward.

Mid-Career Professionals

Career coaching creates the space to step back, evaluate your professional life and decide what you want the next stage to look like.

Entrepreneurs & Small Business Owners

We can work on your strengths, goals, professional identity, confidence, relationships, leadership and the direction you want your business and career to take.

The Process

First step for me is to know my counterpart. After the first chemistry call where we will discuss the desired outcome at the end of our journey, we will start with self-discovery.

I always use a framework which is a guide covering all aspects of values, strengths, creating your brand statement, your mission and introducing to you my STAR model for self promotion, analysing your network and covering your Linkedin, CV and online networking methods.

Using my can do attitude and some NLP techniques, you will be having the sustainable resources and tools to advance in your career.

Followed by some homework, light touch and follow sessions.

At the End of Our Sessions

You will believe in yourself. You know what you are bringing to the table and how to promote yourself
You will regain clarity about your way forward and will know how to position yourself
You will have the self confidence that you can achieve what your mind deceives
You will discover passion, what is your ideal job aspirations, how to achieve them..

It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Hulya as a coach. I worked with her over a series of sessions to rediscover and identify my strengths and to clarify my professional values. Hulya asked the right questions and encouraged me - with a kind, yet consistent push - to explore new angles and options. Hulya is authentic and brings her real self to the exchange, which meant I felt comfortable doing the same.
