Online booking for career guidance advisors

Independent career advisers work with two main groups. Secondary school and university students, often with a parent, who need to choose a direction, a course or a school — usually under the pressure of application deadlines. And adults who want to change career, go back to training or find their next step. For both, the work is built on a first long meeting, assessments or questionnaires, then a few follow-ups.

Demand is very seasonal on the student side, with peaks before application deadlines and after results. A booking page lets families book the moment they realise they need help, even if that's late at night.

On Book, each format is a service with its own price and description, and you open slots for each at the length it takes: 90 minutes for a first meeting, two hours for an assessment, an hour for follow-ups. Use the description to say who should attend (a student alone, or with a parent), what to bring (school reports, a CV) and whether the session can take place by video.

If you run group workshops on applications or interviews, set the slot's capacity to the number of places; each participant books one.

Clients book without an account and receive a confirmation email; you receive an email for each new booking. Reschedule or cancel from your bookings list, and sync with Google, iPhone or Mac. Book doesn't run assessments or take payment. It costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited bookings and services, no commission, no contract.

Your page shows times in your business's time zone, with its name displayed, so there's no confusion for clients booking from elsewhere. To fill a regular week quickly, create a slot once and repeat it on the weekdays you choose until an end date.
