Every career requires you to become an expert in something, whether that specialty is working with people, sales, research, design or predicting the stock market. But the trained and talented professionals at career-management firm GCM Lincolnshire Arbora specialize in careers themselves, other peoples’ careers and how to improve them.
“Most people have never been taught what to do to maximize their careers to where they want to be. They basically let the company take care of it or let chance take care of it,” says GCM CEO Mark Renn. “What we do is empower people to move in the direction they want. That can mean getting a certain position, but it can also mean getting to another level or moving laterally. We do everything from career transitioning to maximizing their position in the industry they’re already in.”
GCM’s certified career counselors are more than head hunters, more than human resource professionals. Instead, much like actors and athletes have agents, a career manager is the person in your corner, representing your best interests. By charting your career path, they’re able to pin down your passions and talents, maximize your marketability, find the best opportunities and even negotiate terms to your best advantage.
“In today’s world, we find everyone is doing a job search incorrectly in different ways, in some way. We have a very strong, quality process that makes things happen for our clients,” explains Renn, who says GCM’s clients are getting jobs very quickly despite a slower job market. “People should really check into our services to see if it’s right fit for them, because frankly, if we can shorten that job search even one month or two – and they will with us – that’s a tremendous amount of money to recoup.”
