Connecting Job Seekers to Career Services

A recent study looked at the rate at which adults aged 25-64 use career services in Canada. The report found that many adults don’t know what career services are, and they’re unsure about what services career professionals can provide.

In Canada, only 19% of adults report using career services. Here’s why that’s important: the rate of people changing jobs has been growing month-to-month as the economy slowly recovers from its pandemic-related lows. So this percentage tells us the vast majority of Canadians are making big decisions about their careers without any guidance.

This points to a need to build a broader understanding and awareness of what career services are, and the unique expertise and value career professionals can offer people.

Career professionals offer an important and complex set of services that help adults determine their interests, beliefs, values, skills and competencies, and connect those to market needs.
