Bruce’s Career Coaching Qualifications

Coaches professionally

Experience level: Director

100+ people coached for Career Coaching

I have worked for over 30 years with hundreds of students and clients seeking to start their career, or to change fields. I work in particular with lawyers seeking to switch fields and careers, and with pre-law students looking to enter the field of law, as well as with law students, and college students in general. I have published two books and many articles on the topic of career change, and finding a job/career. I was an Assistant Dean of a very large multi-campus Pre-law Advising program at a major university for many years. I was also a Director in the Career Services Office of a major law school for several years and have also had my own private career coaching practice. I am also experienced in administering and interpreting several career inventories.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I like to help people achieve their dreams. I have served as a mentor, law school admissions coach and career coach to hundreds of students and applicants, many of whom I have stayed in touch with for many years. I love to make the process as stress-free as possible, and break it down into simple steps and achievable goals. In my thirty years advising applicants, students, and professionals I have helped people achieve their ultimate goal--whether it was to be admitted to Harvard, Yale, Columbia or another top law school, to find scholarships, or to figure out their ultimate career goals. Helping people find the best fit for themselves, and see them succeed has been very meaningful to me. It has been a gratifying career which I enjoy very much!
