Here are a few stories from people we’ve helped build their careers, transition into new roles and conquer their next big opportunities.
After having spent nearly two decades as a long haul captain with a major airline, Lewis’ role had been made redundant in 2020. He was interested in exploring and identifying new industries for a change in his career, so he booked a session with one of our coaches. He was looking for some guidance and direction as to what industries would match his skill sets and experience.
Lewis soon learnt that as a captain, he’d had to manage relationships, handle stressful and risky situations and often successfully managed the trust and security that customers would place in his hands. Lewis' career coach guided him to consider that the financial planning industry may value such expertise - to handle client relationships and manage risk in a trustworthy manner. He identified gaps in his learning and took up a training course in investment and asset management.
Quite a shift, yes?
But this new perspective led Lewis to find his interests in the field of financial planning and wealth management and he's now working as an adviser with Scholten, Collins and McKissock.
Sam was working in the aviation industry, and had been with the same company for over 13 years. Due to COVID-19, his role was made redundant. At this point, Sam decided he wanted a complete career change and wanted to move away from the industry entirely. He knew he wanted to explore, but didn’t know where he would go and how he could get there.
Since Sam did not have a particular industry in mind, he took our 15-minute assessment tool with TalentIdentify and received a complete assessment of his personal strengths, personality type, culture fits and people skills.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: QUALITY
Career Money Life's assessment tool of choice is TalentIdentify, one of the most contemporary tools in the market that offers all four types of people insights in one simple 15-minute assessment. We pride ourselves on high quality partnerships and suppliers.
Sam took the results from his assessment and reached out to a coach to help him understand what he could do with these strengths to apply them better. Sam learned that he had valuable transferable skills that he could employ in any technical role. This gave him multiple industries and pathways to pursue.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: INTEGRATED SUPPORT
We take your employees through a transformational journey, where every service, tool and resource is linked and developed for the same purpose: to help your employees achieve their goals.
Sam found his interests pulling him towards the mining sector, and set out to explore the opportunities best suited for his skills. Through our service, Career Connect, he was able to gain preferential access to job opportunities at a large mining firm.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: INNOVATIVE PLATFORMS
Career Connect is our custom platform that connects your people to recruitment teams actively hiring. With preferential access to roles it makes finding work faster, easier and more accurate.
Sam had the required transferable skills, but had some gaps in terms of the technical skills needed. He completed a training course in safety and mining inductions to really get ahead of his competition.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: UPSKILLING OPTIONS
Career Money Life is the only provider that has the widest range of upskilling and training options for almost every industry.
To ensure he successfully landed the role, Sam built his personal brand. He participated in our career foundations series, worked on updating his Resume and LinkedIn profile for the role, and booked a session with a professional to guide him through the interview and give him the confidence he needed to succeed.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: WELL ROUNDED
Our support system covers all the aspects one would need to land job opportunities. Our key differentiator is that we provide the employee complete choice and control over their journey.
Sam and his career coach researched who was interviewing him, prepared an elevator pitch, and practiced 50 behavioural questions for the interview. Two interviews later, he landed the role.
Sam went from Aviation to Mining in a matter of a few days and did so because of his curiosity and interest to learn and upskill, capitalising on all the tools and support he had at his fingertips with Career, Money, Life. He had everything he needed, he just had to show up, participate, and take the journey step by step.
“I was recently made redundant from a job I had for 13 years, and Career Money Life helped me with a lot of career guidance, a new resume, LinkedIn, and interview prep. Would highly recommend their services to anyone. Thanks again, Career Money Life for giving me the chance and help I needed to change my life around.“
Testimonial by Sam
Mark was a senior pilot with a major airline. He’d been flying for over 10 years, loving the job that allowed him to travel and command large aircrafts. However, devastatingly, his dream job came to an end in April 2020 when it was made redundant. Mark felt bewildered and uncertain of which career direction to follow, as the entire aviation industry was under duress.
Mark wanted to get a clearer idea about his various options, so he used our “My Next Steps” tool to understand which career transition pathways were available to him.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: INTERACTIVE
Our interactive self paced tools help gain clarity and direction, at any time, with a few simple clicks.
After completing the quiz, he became interested in entrepreneurship. He met with a coach who identified how he could use his transferable skills to create his own business. Mark knew that as a pilot, he was very detail-oriented and dexterous. He soon realised that he could combine his love for ceramics with his transferable skills to create a small startup.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: EXPERTISE
Our Marketplace has a large number of industry specialised coaches with years of experience in their field. Due to this, Mark was able to partner with a coach that had expertise in startups and entrepreneurship for tailored guidance.
Mark signed up to our training programs, so he could learn more about the way startups function and how he could create his own, small scale, home startup creating sculptures and figurines.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: UPSKILLING OPTIONS
Career Money Life is the only career transition provider that offers a large range of upskilling and training options covering multiple industries, skills and trades.
Mark never imagined he would go from flying an aircraft to delicately creating sculptures and figurines - all whilst having a successful new business. It was a huge transition to make, requiring courage, guidance and support to be able to make that leap of faith. He is loving the experience of owning a business and the freedom and flexibility it has allowed him to have.
Testimonial by Mark
Meet Sarah. Sarah was working as an Emergency Claims Assistant at a large travel insurance company for several years. She was comfortable with her job despite the large amount of paperwork and emergency cases. Due to COVID-19, the company she was working for was facing a lot of financial stress, and unfortunately stood down some of their employees. Sarah’s role was made redundant, suddenly putting her out of a job after years of service. She knew she needed help figuring out her next steps and was looking for guidance and support during this difficult time.
Sarah had been out of the job search game for years, which meant that she had no idea how things worked! We connected her with a career coach of her choosing to help her identify her next steps.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: CHOICE
Sarah preferred virtual coaching instead of face to face. She also had a specific budget in mind and wanted to choose someone that suited her needs. Our Marketplace allowed her to easily browse through numerous coaches and select the one she resonated with the most.
Sarah’s coach helped her understand the need to update and format her job search documents. She participated in our Career Foundations Webinar Series and gained some insight on how she could alter her resume and LinkedIn profile to make them more impactful.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: FLEXIBILITY
Sarah had two choices: she could attend the webinars and make the changes herself through the guidance received, or contract resume and LinkedIn services from our providers. She chose to do these edits herself for the long-term knowledge she’d gain.
Sarah was worried about interviews and wanted to learn how she could network better. She wanted to have more time with her coach and therefore purchased additional sessions on her own. She also watched our on-demand Interview Skills and Networking Webinars which gave her practical tools and advice she needed to make a strong statement.
THE VALUE OF OUR DIFFERENCE: CONVENIENCE
Once she'd used up the credit from her employer, under normal circumstances, Sarah would have to find new services on her own. We’re different because we offer that extra convenience for employees to add their own credit onto their profile on our platform. Sarah chose to extend her program duration to allow continued support in a time of need.
After receiving the guidance and confidence she needed, Sarah reached out to employers in similar industries that were identified with her coach. She was successful in securing a contract working in the hotel quarantine and arrivals and approval into Australia (for travelling Australians.) She worked here for 2 months after which she found another opportunity with the Australian government that better suited her interests. She came back to us to upskill and prepare for this specific opportunity. Sarah now has a contract with the government and has been offered a role as an Authorised Officer.
