Applicants for the Career Coach position at the company should have a Bachelor's degree, with a Master's degree preferred, and at least 2-3 years' of related experience. A Facilitating Career Development Certification is also preferred. The role requires the ability to actively listen, communicate effectively, and demonstrate empathy, energy, and enthusiasm. The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, able to multitask, and work unsupervised, with a strong commitment to the Arkansas Educator Code of Ethics. Responsibilities include meeting with students to discuss academic and career goals, assisting with work-based learning opportunities, and supporting students in industry assessments and employability skills. The position demands a high level of integrity, decision-making skills, and the ability to build and maintain a team-oriented work environment.
