Synergy Careers facilitates the development of each client’s decision-making skills, guides and enhances their self-awareness and knowledge base.
You will be assisted to make choices on a personal, educational and career basis about your life, to set targets and to make transitions consequent to these choices through use of guidance tools and exploratory discussion.
This will be done in a safe, positive, respectful and non-judgemental environment.
It is challenging for clients wishing to make a career decision or career change to navigate through all the choices that exist, to ensure they make appropriate choices to be eligible for application, to know what level to pitch at – degree course versus certificate, Institute of Technology versus university or PLC, apprenticeship or employment routes. So support and information will be provided to help navigate through this selection process.
Note: testing is carried out according to the British Psychological Society International Guidelines for Test Use. Psychometric tests are administered according to standard ethical guidelines and only as one aspect of a wider Careers Assessment Package.

” I found the process very beneficial; Probing questions which helped develop thought process.
