FOR STUDENTS by LOUISE HACK
Private Career Assessment and Consultation, especially for young people.
There are an infinite number of career options for students who have just left or are about to leave high school, college or university. This can be an overwhelming time for young people, as they feel the influences of everyone from parents to teachers to peers, as well as internal pressure from themselves, when it comes to making critical career choices.
With 30+ years of experience in the career transition business, Louise Hack provides formal career assessment and private coaching to students which is specifically designed to give them objective and practical guidance about crucial post-secondary and career goal decisions.
She uses the world’s most widely recognized career assessment tool, the Strong Interest Inventory® to help. For these purposes, she generally uses the very specific High School or College Student version of the assessment to help identify post-secondary courses and career options.
Through a private telephone or video conference meeting, Louise interpret's the results of the assessment through discussion around where they are today on their career journey, and their own ideas about their future potential.
The goal is to pin-point specific post-secondary programs as a pathway to a pre-determined career goal. How exciting is that?!
You can read about the Strong Interest Inventory® itself here and see a sample of the High-School version of the assessment.

The Inspiration
My name is Louise Hack. The inspiration for developing this career coaching service for students came from my two sons, while they were in high school and contemplating their career directions.
Today, both are working in their respective fields; my eldest, a Chemical Engineering graduate (2020) from Western University and my youngest, a Business Communications graduate (2022) from Brock University.
As author of The Empowered Job Seeker and President of CMS Career Management Solutions Inc., I have developed a wealth of career planning expertise for over 30 years. I have extensive knowledge and experience of a broad range of industries and occupations and I bring that knowledge to help my young clients visualize potential career options for themselves.
As a Certified Administrator of the Strong Interest Inventory®, I combine the science of this assessment tool with my experience and with my passion in seeing my student clients get excited about the possibilities!
My goal is to help young people to find or confirm a career direction, in which they can grow and be happy long term.
