Press Release Summary: UpShot Career Services provides affordable, flexible and customized career coaching packages. UpShot CS exists to become the leading provider of affordable career coaching services that will give job seekers the advantage in the marketplace.
Press Release Body: (Cincinnati: October 9, 2007) UpShot Career Services (UpShot) today announced its entry into the career coaching services industry. CEO and Head Coach Dr. Reginald Morris started UpShot to give the average job seeker an affordable way to gain a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
In the past 15 years, Morris has helped over 1,600 individuals find jobs. He began helping others find work after the L.A. Riots in 1992, while serving as founder and executive director of the Youth Job Awareness Project, a non profit organization created to introduce inner city young adults to the work ethic and help them find jobs. He successfully helped job applicants land positions at Xerox, ARCO, Countrywide Funding, Frito Lay, KFC, Pioneer Electronics, Pizza Hut and many other companies.
According to Morris, "Career coaching gives job seekers an edge. With these services, individuals save money, earn higher wages and reduce their job search time because they will avoid common mistakes most job seekers make."
"Before UpShot, career coaching was viewed as an expensive luxury available only to executives. We've priced our services with the average job seeker in mind. Employers work with professional recruiters. At UpShot, the job seeker now has someone on his team - a professional coach - to be an assistant during job search and negotiations, providing professional support that ensures that the upshot - the outcome - will be nothing less than success."
According to an article titled, Ready for a Fresh Start? in Money magazine's April 2007 issue, "About 60 percent of the more than 12,000 people who answered a MONEY and Salary.com survey said they were considering switching careers or had recently done so, echoing economists' forecasts that the multiple-career work life is about to become the rule."
"Today's job seekers will likely find themselves changing jobs every three to five years. Whether it's a new job, career advancement or needing to find the right work-life balance, UpShot clients will stand out among other job seekers," said Morris.
UpShot has coaches throughout the US and offers flexible and convenient coaching sessions via the telephone and the Internet. Contact UpShot at 513-619-6360 or www.upshotcs.com.
