Coaching for women returners in Zürich | MaXXYou

Yvonne Looije founder of MaXXYou helps returning career women to find their way back to the workplace. It is not always easy to re-enter the labor market after a long time. The greater the time gap, the more difficult the returning process. Long-term unemployment can be a personal choice or imposed by illness or a dismissal procedure. Re-entering the labor market does not always go smoothly. After many rejections and yet another disappointing job interview, the courage of many sinks.

Coaching women returners

After a long period of unemployment, people have to get used to the rhythm of work and the realization that they are working for a boss again. In addition, many people re-entering the labor market experience a degree of uncertainty. To get back to work can be challenging. Good guidance in the workplace is therefore of great importance. That’s why Yvonne offers coaching and mentoring for women returners.

Returning - what's your plan?

Before you start looking for a new job, it is important that you ask yourself what you want. Do you aim for a full-time job because your kids are at school during day time? Do you want to combine work with other things that matter to you? Which industry would you like to work? How important are things like hybrid working and child care options are work for you? How to best organize yourself around your desires? Yvonne helps women find answers to these questions.

Might it be a good momentum to step back and reflect your wants and needs, and discover what is out there for you? Also, Corona and today's VUCA world have created a different demand in many ways.

Building your CV

It might be that you have not been working for a while, and you might wonder what's the best strategy when it comes to building your CV. Yvonne has - besides being a corporate career coach - strong business acumen, and with that she is able to fully support you in finding best ways to demonstrate who your are and your abilities. When you want to make 'the next step', Yvonne is also able to mentor you in going forwards, and to get the most out of current opportunities around you.

Leverage your network

There are people who care for you and who know your worth - in life and at work. They can be your advocate and bring their influence into play, convincing business relations and other relevant people around them. Yvonne Looije helps women returners to leverage their network - to let just that work for them in the very best way.
