“If you don’t have natural empathy, dealing with patients over an extended time can become very tiresome as this is not a natural strength,” says Leah Lambart, Melbourne-based owner-director of a career coaching firm.

For workers in their late 20s or early 30s, deciding whether to enter management is a common dilemma explains Melbourne-based career coach Leah Lambart.

Leah Lambart, founder of Relaunch Me, says that social media has completely changed the game when it comes to keeping up appearances.

Leah Lambart, Career Coach from Relaunch Me, says many people “feel that perhaps their expectations are too high,” and that they should stay in their job even if it makes them unhappy.But the truth is we all deserve to not only be satisfied, but fulfilled by our work.

Leah Lambart, Career Coach from Relaunch Me says resumes that are achievement-focused help employers discover how you have been successful in your previous roles. “Add key achievements under each of your most recent positions,” advises Lambart.

Leah Lambart is a Career Coach from Relaunch Me and an expert when it comes to achieving career goals. Here are her five key tactics for setting realistic, achievable goals for your working life.

“Many job search coaches would say that networking is the most important and most effective way of landing your dream job,” says Leah Lambart, career coach at Relaunch Me. “Essentially, networking is about finding a job via who you know, rather than what you know.”

Leah Lambart, Career Coach from Relaunch Me, has worked with many people who have had to leave their places of work for a range of reasons. Here are her tips for talking about why you were let go.

“Think about the skills you’ve gained and the wins you’ve had,” Lambart advises. “Remember to document these on an ongoing basis to remind yourself of how much you’ve achieved even when you have bad days.”

Just how important are tailored resumes, squeaky clean social media profiles and comprehensive cover letters? We asked employers to share – and you might be surprised at their answers.

There are many reasons why career satisfaction is important, says Leah Lambart from Relaunch Me. “We spend so much time at work that being in a career that isn’t enjoyable or satisfying can have a very detrimental effect on our overall being.” Many people suffer from lack of confidence, stress and anxiety due to working in jobs that aren’t aligned with their strengths, interests or values.

“Some people have no problem doing this, but others find it extremely difficult and feel almost compelled to accept an offer, particularly if the recruitment process has been quite drawn out and involved,” says Leah Lambart, Career Coach at Relaunch Me.

Leah Lambart of Relaunch Me says, “Everyone seems to be on the treadmill; working late, coming in early, eating at their desks and working weekends. The problem is that lack of work-life balance over an extended period can lead to burnout, so it’s important to recognise the symptoms ahead of time.”

Dramatic changes in the job market – and the way we live – have left many of us re-thinking our priorities in the wake of COVID-19, and doing some soul-searching into what really matters. And for many of us, it isn’t money.

Change to our working lives, routines, and the world around us can be hard – and it has been for many of us during COVID-19. But this kind of upheaval can also do something else: it can make us stop and reassess the way we’re living our lives and what we really want – including in our work.

If you’re concerned about job security, a career change to a whole new industry could seem tempting.

Career coach Leah Lambart says there are numerous career management strategies that workers can adopt to stay ahead of the competition.“Now is the time to really work on your skills,” Lambart says.When business does resume, there will be a lot of competition for jobs but if you can show recruiters how you worked on your skills during this period you will be in a much better position.”

Providing a potential employer with extensive insights or work samples can constitute free consultancy. Candidates might be asked to complete a cost-benefit analysis or review a set of accounts, says Melbourne-based career and interview coach and Relaunch Me director, Leah Lambart.

While salary is always important, other strategies can be used to attract candidates. The most sought-after perk is flexibility, says Leah Lambart, a career and interview coach and founder of Relaunch Me. Employees value “some leeway that allows them to attend a school event or go to an appointment without being made to feel guilty about it”.

Director of Relaunch Me, former tax accountant turned career coach Leah Lambart says many employees have re-assessed their priorities in the wake of the pandemic, and recruiters are in the fortunate position of having their choice of highly qualified candidates who, in the past, may have been outside their budget.

Leah recommends assessing your own strengths and weaknesses to find out exactly what you can bring to a new role.“Before you go out to market you need to be able to identify, understand and articulate your key transferable skills and how you can apply them to your ideal role or industry. Brainstorm with a career coach or friend to get a list of your transferable skills”.
