Hi Hazem,

Sorry for my late reply, our initiative of Career Coaching is targeting mainly the young people in universities, fresh grade and junior professionals. We aim to start our NGO by the end of this year. I am a certified Career Coach from a French University and hoping to spread the idea and the coaching concept in all over Egypt!

What problem are you trying to solve?

Hello @sfreto, good to meet you. I am curious to know what gave you the idea to start this NGO. Most countries have Job Centers, where people in search of employment go and are given advice on where to look, helped to write their CVs etc. What is the situation like in Egypt? Are you trying to provide the basic service or are you trying for something different?

Hi Alberto,

The idea is beyond the basics of cv writing and/or interviwing skills. The idea is concentrating if the chosen career is the best career which is suitable for the candidate or not from the beginning. We are trying to explore some issues before applying to jobs and going to the employment market. The main issues are identifying the personality type and how to deal with other types, Career interests, Career values and motivational skills! It is a full journey :slight_smile:
