Career advisers: assessment and feedback sessions
How career guidance advisers can book assessment and feedback sessions online: a first interview, assessment sessions from your list and a feedback meeting.
5 min read
A career assessment runs in steps: a first interview, one or more assessment sessions with questionnaires or exercises, time for you to analyse and write, then a feedback meeting with a plan. If clients book each step themselves, the order and timing slip. With Book, clients book the first interview on your own booking page, and you book the following steps from your list.
Services for each step
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| First interview | 1 h | 1 | €60 |
| Assessment session | 2 h | 1 | €110 |
| Feedback meeting | 1 h 30 | 1 | €90 |
| Follow-up session | 1 h | 1 | €60 |
Durations and prices are examples. If you sell the whole assessment as a package, agree the price outside Book and leave session prices empty.
The first interview
Say in the description what the interview covers and what to bring, such as a CV or school reports. The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email: ask for the current situation, such as student, employee or job seeker.
Assessment sessions from your list
At the end of the interview, book the assessment sessions yourself from your bookings list. A slot can last most of a day, as long as it sits within one day. First and last name are enough; with their email, the client gets a confirmation with a calendar file for each session.
Time to analyse and write
Leave enough days between the last session and the feedback meeting. You create every slot, so keep writing time free of public slots, and book the feedback meeting from your list once you know when the report will be ready.
Video sessions
Some steps work well by video. Create a video service and send your link by email: Book doesn't create video links.
Follow-up
After the feedback, offer a follow-up a few months later to check progress. Book it yourself from your list. Book doesn't send reminders, so the calendar file keeps the date in the client's calendar.
Changes
Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and you move the session from your list. Rescheduling works across services.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't take payments, store questionnaires or reports, or send reminders. One booking page per business, no staff field: with associates, create services per adviser. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
