    Hi Kathleen

    I would like to recommend an Excellent Career guidance Councillor and life Coach. Rita McNamara. She is based in the midlands and west area, she can meet you at your own home and preform various and in depth tests and exams and interviews to find out the areas in which you would excel in terms of career and what your interests are. She also prepares people for interviews and I found her excellent I have had experience of many interview coaches and I found her the best. As far as I am aware she was a career guidance councilor in a secondary school and now has her own business doing life coaching, interview prep and career advice. I came out from her sessions feeling so positive, confident and prepared for my interview for the (Cadets - Irish Defense Forces).
    Her name is Rita McNamara and her number is 087 455 7599.

    Hope this helps
    Sean

    Hi Kathleen.
    I went to Rita for guidance last year as I was doing my leaving certificate and was unsure what path I wanted to follow. She did psychometric testing and provided me with a comprehensive book after many discussions with me and online tests, which very accurately described my interests, abilities, skills and pointed me in the right direction (engineering). Rita was most helpful, extremely knowledgable about all aspects of career guidance and clearly passionate about what she does, along with being a lovely lady!
