The Process

Finding the best career path is often a challenge for many of us. Fortunately, not for you.

At Genius Unlocked, we use one of the world’s most respected and widely used career planning tools that provides robust insights into a person’s career interests. By using this assessment, years of professional experience, and industry reports, our coaches help you discover potential careers you may not have considered and a wealth of information about how you approach the real world of work. This engagement extends to not only finding the best career options but also extends to honest advice on which college or university will be the best fit for your situation. In past, families have saved more than 20,000 USD on average on college tuition fees.

Each coaching engagement is highly personalized and takes approximately 4-6 weeks. It also requires commitment and time investments from the person seeking career advice and where relevant, parents of the student.
