Why don’t more adults take advantage of professional career planning?

Sometimes parents assume that their child is getting all the guidance they need from school counselors. Sometimes parents and adults looking to make  a change are just not aware of credible career planning resources. Obtaining an in-depth assessment and consulting with a career professional is a relatively new but growing strategy to use for both students and mid-career adults. It’s essential for effective career management. In today’s competitive workplace, this is one way individuals can gain a competitive advantage and know more confidently what it takes to achieve success and satisfaction for themselves.
