FAQs Archive - CareerHub - Expert Career Guidance and Counselling

Q: How is this different from school career guidance?

School career guidance is a valuable service but it operates under significant constraints — large student numbers, limited time, and broad brush recommendations. When you pay for private guidance with Michelle, you get a full one-to-one session built entirely around your child, their interests, their personality and their options. You leave with specific answers, a clear direction and a personalised written report. There is no comparison.

Q: Do you offer evening appointments?

CareerHub is Michelle's full-time profession — not a sideline. Career guidance involves life-changing decisions. They deserve full focus, proper preparation, and the right headspace — not a rushed evening slot at the end of a long day. Students are tired after school. Adults are tired after work. An evening appointment, however well-intentioned, is rarely the right environment for decisions this important. Morning and daytime sessions are the standard at CareerHub, and clients consistently find it time well spent. Evening slots exist but availability is extremely limited.

Q: Are sessions online or in person?

Both. Michelle sees clients at her office in Limerick and online nationwide. Sessions are equally effective either way - the choice is entirely yours.

Q: Am I leaving it too late to book?

At certain times of year - particularly around CAO deadlines and subject choice periods - demand is significantly higher and lead times are longer. If you're approaching one of these windows, early contact is strongly advised. The parents and students who get the most from career guidance are the ones who plan ahead rather than react to a deadline.
