Professional coaches can give you vocational guidance, along with a lot of encouragement during a job search, or in your existing livelihood. However, the typical psychological evaluations utilized to help you further define your skills (e.g., Myers-Briggs) can be too general and indistinct, as mentioned in this article:

Even so, coaches can be very valuable in helping you to identify the significance of your existing experience, to help you identify realistic professional goals, and help you stay on track to success.
But what do you do if you want to get into a totally new career and you would like to identify, in detail, your subconscious motivations and abilities to help you make the most of your new venture? You need career assessment methods that delve deeply into your personality, such as handwriting analysis in conjunction with comprehensive astrology and numerology.
