<p>Even the most expensive career counseling does not have high success rates. Many corporations her in NYC pay 10-15K for each employee that has been RIFed to go to a well known career counseling company for 6 months. The workers I know personally are all very good at what they do, highly credentialed and with outstanding resumes. They say that the counseling sessions were valuable to a point but NOT ONE has credited their counselor with substantially helping them get their next position.</p>
