Career coaching — guidance on building your career
A career coach helps you calmly weigh your options and make a plan when you want to change careers, have outgrown your role or are returning to work after a break. Say in an order where you are and what you want — coaches will respond. Or compare coaches yourself: approach, prices, reviews.
Career coaches
How much a career consultation costs
What affects the price
One session or a program
A one-off consultation on a single question, such as whether to accept a new position, and support throughout a job search are priced differently.
Resume and LinkedIn
Edits to your resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile may be included in the program or paid for separately; an English version is often charged as separate work.
Tests and questionnaires
Some interest or strengths questionnaires are paid: the coach buys access for you, and it may be charged separately from the consultation.
Industry and seniority
Supporting a manager or a specialist in a narrow field, where the coach has to know the market, is usually priced differently from a consultation at the start of a career.
Prices come from specialists' profiles on Nexperity and update automatically. You agree the final price with the specialist directly.

How to choose a career coach
- 1
Coaching or counseling
A coach mostly asks questions and helps you reach your own decision, while a career consultant gives advice based on knowledge of the job market. Decide which one you need.
- 2
Knowing your field
Ask which professions and levels the coach has worked with and whether they know the job market in your industry.
- 3
Training and tools
Ask where the coach trained and which tools they use: interest, strengths or values questionnaires. Nexperity does not check diplomas or certificates.
- 4
What you are left with
Ask what you will have in hand: a written plan, resume edits, a list of companies to target. A coach cannot promise a position or a salary — you are the one going to the interviews.
- 5
The goal from the start
Agree at the first session on the decision or plan you should come away with and how many sessions to set aside for it.
What to put in the order
Where you are now: field, experience and seniority
What you want: change careers, grow in your current job or choose a direction
Whether you need a resume or LinkedIn profile review
Format: online or in person, one consultation or several sessions
The language of sessions and convenient times
Payment per session or for the whole program, and the preferred timeframe
Questions about Nexperity
How Nexperity works — separately for clients and for specialists
For clients
Nothing. Searching for specialists, sending requests, posting orders and receiving responses are free.
No. You agree the price and the payment method with the specialist and pay them directly. Nexperity does not take payments and is not a party to your deal.
A request goes to one specialist — from their profile. An order is posted for everyone: specialists send you responses, and you choose which one to accept.
How the specialist will do the task, a price — fixed, a range, hourly or “on request” — and, optionally, an estimated timeline.
30 days from publication: all that time it is visible in the feed and specialists can send responses. The exact end date and time are shown on the order in your account. From that moment the order is closed and a response can no longer be accepted. You can cancel it earlier, and if no specialist turned up, post a new one.
Yes: you can hide your name and photo in an order. The anonymity lasts until acceptance — the specialist whose response you accept sees your name and photo. The task description is public: anyone visiting the site can read it.
Only after acceptance — when you accept their response or they accept your request. And only the contacts you chose to show.
After acceptance you see the contacts the specialist chose to show, and they see the ones you chose. You can also message on Nexperity when the chat is on: on an order you decide that, on a direct request the specialist does.
Once the work is done, mark the order or the collaboration completed in your account — then you can say whether you recommend the specialist. A review can only be left for a collaboration that happened through Nexperity: one per specialist, which you can change or delete at any time.
For specialists
Nothing for now: this is the free period, and no subscription is needed yet. Nexperity takes no commission on deals — you settle with the client directly.
Sign up, fill in your specialist profile and add your services — each with a category, a description and a price. Once the profile is complete, it appears in search and on the category pages.
Two ways: clients send you requests from your profile, which you can accept or decline; and you see public orders in your categories in your account and can respond to them.
You describe how you will do the task and give a price and, optionally, a timeline. The client compares responses and accepts one.
Contacts set to “Public” are visible to everyone on your profile. A client sees contacts set to “After connection” once you accept their request or they accept your response. “Hidden” ones are not revealed in new connections: a contact already revealed to a client stays visible to them.
Each service has a fixed price, a range, an hourly rate or “on request”. Prices show on your profile and in search results, and you agree the final price with the client.
Through search and the category pages of your services. The order depends on your clients' reviews — how many of them recommend you — and in search also on how well your services match the query.
A photo, a description, your region and way of working — online or in person — your contacts and a portfolio: photos of your work, each with a short caption if you like.
A client leaves a review after completed work, and only for a collaboration through Nexperity: they say whether they recommend you and may add a few words. Each client counts once, however many times you work together.
