About Us    > > > >   Why We're Different

There are several firms in B.C. who offer assistance in career planning and job-finding. There are, however, important differences in the services offered, experience, competence and fees. Which one is best for you?
If you shop, we suggest you ask each of these questions:

  1. Are they locally owned and managed, or are they a branch or franchise? CareerPlan has been locally owned and managed for more than 30 years.
  2. Have they been in business locally for over 10 years? CareerPlan has been in Vancouver since 1975. We know the local market for managers, technical, sales and marketing and business professionals.
  3. Do they guarantee in writing to provide services at no additional cost until your goals are achieved? CareerPlan offers a guarantee on most programs to provide services until agreed upon goals are achieved.
  4. Will they provide assistance at no additional cost if you lose or are dissatisfied with your new job? CareerPlan provides such guarantees.
  5. Are their fees reasonable? CareerPlan offers very competitive fees for comparable services.
  6. Do they offer a long-term payment option? CareerPlan, confident of our success, can structure convenient monthly payment terms.
  7. Do they offer a variety of programs and services? CareerPlan offers many service options to meet your individual needs, not a one size fits all.
  8. Do they have staff who are familiar with your field? CareerPlan staff has counseled over 15,000 men and women in BC from every field. We also maintain a database of nearly 100,000 organizations in BC, plus regional directories.
  9. Do they have qualified psychologists and/or counsellors available for assessment, development and to assist you through emotionally difficult times? CareerPlan has several qualified counsellors and licensed psychologists.
  10. Do you get the benefit of more than one professional staff member? At CareerPlan, most clients work with a team — client services representative, licensed psychologist or counselor, career consultant and seminar leader.
  11. Are they known and trusted by local organizations? Since 1975 CareerPlan has provided consulting service to hundreds of local companies, municipalities and provincial and federal governmental agencies in Executive Search, Human Resources, Candidate Assessment and Selection, outplacement services, and internal transitions.
