Improving your career fit

Inova has developed programmes and interventions aimed at helping individuals develop the careers they want, particularly for individuals who see their career fit as being self-employed. Inova uses career counselling tools and techniques to work with individuals on a one to one and group basis to help them reflect on their skills and experiences to date and how to transfer these into new employment/self-employment opportunities. We specialise in working with individuals returning to work following a career break for any reason.

Please see below for our portfolio of completed projects in this area.

We also have current UK and International career SOS projects.

Career Development Workshops and Personality Profiling for Women Returners in ITEC (IT, Electronics and Telecommunications)

Inova developed and ran career development workshops which aimed to increase women’s confidence and equip them with up to date job-searching skills and information to help them return to a career in ITEC. Personality profiling was also provided to women to aid them reflect on strengths and weaknesses when putting together job applications or preparing for interviews.

Networking Workshops for University Students

Inova provides networking workshops for Sheffield Hallam University students in collaboration with the Enterprise Centre in order to equip students with vital career skills which are particularly relevant for those students thinking of starting up in business but also for general career development.
