Our coaching sessions are designed to be thorough yet efficient. While the exact duration can be tailored to your specific needs and the complexity of the topics we are covering, a typical one-on-one session with a coach usually ranges from 60 to 90 minutes. This allows ample time for in-depth discussion, practice exercises, and focused feedback without feeling rushed.

Absolutely! We understand that flexibility is key in today's busy world. Career Ascent Training proudly offers comprehensive online coaching sessions conducted via secure video conferencing platforms. This means you can easily connect with your coach and receive expert guidance from the comfort of your own home, office, or anywhere else in the world, making our services accessible regardless of your location.

While the speed of results can vary depending on individual effort, starting point, and specific goals, many clients report feeling a significant increase in confidence and observing noticeable improvements in their interview performance after just one or two initial sessions. Tangible outcomes, such as securing more interviews or receiving job offers, are typically seen within a few weeks or months of engaging with our tailored coaching and putting the learned strategies into dedicated practice.

Yes, we certainly do! To provide more comprehensive support and value, Career Ascent Training offers various package options. These packages are designed to bundle multiple coaching sessions together or combine different services, such as resume writing coupled with interview coaching, often at a more favorable rate than booking services individually. Please get in touch with us directly to discuss your needs, and we can provide details on the package options best suited for you.

We understand that unforeseen circumstances can arise. To ensure fairness to both our clients and coaches, we require at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a booked coaching session. Cancellations or changes made with less than 24 hours' notice may incur a cancellation fee. For complete details regarding our cancellation policy and other service terms, please refer to our full Terms of Service.
