Recruiter V Career Coach? 
 
What’s the difference? Which one do I need? Do I need both? 
 
The general expectation when meeting a recruiter is to meet an industry expert. A recruiter should understand the job market you are searching in, a specialist who has real-time knowledge of the current availability of jobs, in the required location and sector, and be able to advise on salaries, packages and career development opportunities available with the various employers compatible with your skills and proactively undertake activities to identify opportunities that align with your wants and needs as an active job seeker. The recruiter may also be able to offer advice on writing your CV and preparation for an interview. 
 
So, what does a careers coach do? 
 
Whereas a recruiter is someone feeding you information and directing you to jobs which are available and deemed suitable from your request. A careers coach will first and foremost NOT give you information. In an alternative approach, they will help you to examine your current career to date and then explore your options with you.

‘I would highly recommend using Tracey for your recruitment purposes. 
 
A warm and friendly approach as well as maintaining professionalism in what is a challenging time for recruitment for recruiters and candidates. 
 
Tracey was with me every step of the way from first contact to advising me I was successful in being offered the position to keeping in touch in my first few weeks' 
 
 
Yvette Warwick, Successful Candidate 
I have known Tracey Clay for nearly 15 years. I have worked with Tracey on a number of occasions over ten years as both a client and a candidate. 
 
As a candidate who has found temporary and permanent employment through Tracey, I was always made to feel valued and important as a candidate. She has negotiated on my behalf, advised me on career and development opportunities and also been brutally honest which I have needed. She has however done this with kindness, compassion and support. 
 
I always feel better about recruitment on either side of the table knowing that Tracey is in my phone. 
Marty McAuley, Senior Manager & Successful Candidate!
