Hi Reddit! I’m Alina (Ali for short), a career coach at Shift Careers - and I’m here for an honest AMA
Everyone says the job market is ‘impossible.’ Sure, it’s not easy - no market ever is. But here’s the thing: it’s not impossible.
Having worked in both recruitment and coaching, I’ve gained insight into what really happens behind the scenes during hiring, and how to help people present themselves authentically.
I’ve always been drawn to real, honest conversations, especially those where people can finally open up and say how they feel, what they really want, and what’s been getting in the way. That’s what naturally led me into career coaching about 5 years ago.
I believe work should feel meaningful and sustainable. I believe in balance. And I believe that when people feel supported, seen, and have clarity, they make bold, beautiful moves.
If you’re feeling drained, stuck, unsure about what’s next, or just trying to figure out what a “dream job” even looks like for you - ask me anything!
