According to Bustle.com, "A career coach can be a wonderful asset for any professional  at a career crossroads," Rachel Bitte, Chief People Officer of Jobvite, tells Bustle. "Whether you're just starting out and unsure which path to take, you're hoping to find a new passion, or you're ready to move to the next level, getting an outside perspective from a professional can be extremely helpful."

Career coaches can guide you through all sorts of major milestones — switching gears and going back to school or learning how to manage a team. But smaller bumps in the road do come up, and you might not realize you need help. Calling on a career coach for a tough negotiation or even just a particular presentation can be a great idea. Externalizing your situation, explaining the challenges, and getting a professional's trained eye could make all the difference in achieving the outcome you want."
