Why IT Career Coaching on MyTechlogy?
At times it can be frustrating for talented IT professionals such as yourself to not get a chance to showcase their skills before an interviewer simply because they lack an exact fit against a job description. If you feel that you are in a rut with your career, there is a way to get out of it, but it may require the help of a professional to get there.
At MyTechlogy we are committed to helping IT professionals across the world find meaningful career advice from IT experts and professional career coaches. A good IT career coaching service could be vital to your success in bringing your career back on to a growth path, in switching jobs/careers, or even in just expanding your horizons.
Personalized Career Advice
You may find plenty of career advice out there on the web. But often such advice is only helps you progress to a limited extent beyond which you have more specific requirements that you’re not sure how to address. And that’s where career coaching can really help you. A career coach can act as your compass, helping you identify crucial blind spots that affect your career growth, and guiding you towards achieving your career goals.
Dedicated Time for Career Development
Many IT professionals we’ve met actually already knew the solutions to their career challenges, but ultimately didn’t implement them because they didn’t give them the right priority and time. The best part about having a career coach and attending coaching sessions is that it helps you hold yourself accountable to the career-related tasks that you’ve been procrastinating on again and again.
Experiment, Iterate and Improve
Experimenting with your career without proper guidance may put your future career prospects at risk. Unlike your friends or colleagues, a career coach has no prior knowledge of you, and is therefore able to objectively analyze your career challenges from multiple viewpoints before recommending ideas that are optimized for your career progress. That means that you will get your ideas evaluated, and you’ll get real-time feedback and guidance from your coach about how to implement them and keep moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
IT career coaching is a process in which an experienced coach partners with you in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires you to maximize your personal and professional potential.
The process involves
- Discovering, clarifying, and aligning with what you want to achieve
- Encouraging self-discovery
- Eliciting solutions and strategies
- Putting you in charge of your career
The process helps you dramatically improve your outlook towards work and life, while improving your leadership skills and unlocking your potential.
No, IT career coaching is not the same as therapy. Therapy is intended to help people overcome emotional or psychological disorders. IT career coaching, on the other hand, is intended to help IT professionals achieve greater success, satisfaction, and wellbeing in their careers.
The key is to be willing to share your career experiences, concerns and perspectivesfrankly with your coach. While the coach will help you find your way and guide you along it, remember that it will be you who needs to work on your goals because those goals are yours, and it's you who's trying to improve!
When you share, you give the coach the opportunity to help you discover where you might be limiting your progress and give you the best, personalised advice.
So, share your IT career goals and keep an open and willing mind when they make suggestions.
Not every individual who works with computer technology can build a software application. For that, you need a person who knows how to programme. Similarly to coach an IT enthusiast like you and offer you career advice, we believe that only expert person who understands IT careers and has experience with the nuances of being in IT can do it.. MyTechlogy has more than 100 career coaches to assist you in your career progression.
We know your career focus areas are very important to you but employers needs keep changing, and that's exactly why we offer you insight driven career advice that is completely personalized to your profile. Our insights are based on global market demand and the career advice is based on real-world experience. You will interact with your career coach in a one-on-one environment, so that you can have a focused and personalised discussion with you coach.
Each IT career coach is specially chosen by the MyTechlogy team. We look for successful professionals who have a track record - subject matter and industry experts and career coaches who get what you're going through. They're the kind of experts who can give you honest, actionable advice because they've already walked the path themselves. Most importantly, we look for IT experts who are passionate about benefitting others with their expertise, and who are committed to providing a valuable experience every time.
A professional IT career coach can help you with many types of career challenges. Each of our coaches has his or her own areas of specialty. Some specialize in topics such as cloud computing and infrastructure, cyberSecurity, machine learning, data science and Analytics, others in project management, career transition, resume writing and interview preparation. When you sign up and create your career path you will hear from coaches in our system that specialize in your field of interest.
You can search for an IT career coach using keywords (skills or technology name), or you can click the handy filters that appear above the search box to ease your search process.
Every IT career coach has gone through our selection process, so you can choose any coach you prefer. Having said that, it's always a great idea to pick a coach whose background or experience most closely aligns with what you're currently doing or what you want to be doing. Simply filter the IT career coaches by skill at the top of the page, and review the coach profiles and select the one you think would best suit your needs.
Not at all! In fact, all our coaches conduct their coaching meetings over Skype. Getting the right fit is so important when looking for the right coach, so it’s more important to find one whose training, experience, and background closely match with your specific goals.
That coachmight be someone who lives in or near your area, or someone in a completely different location. Remember, it's finding the right coach, not the closest coach that matters.
The coaches set their own rates based on their qualifications and experience, such as their credentials as a coach, the number of years of professional work experience, subject-matter expertise and so on.
To book a session, go to the coach’s profile you want advice from and click on "Book Now" against the service you want to engage.
If it's the first time you’re trying our coaching service or if you're going to be working with a new coach, we recommend starting with one session. During your first session, your coach may suggest that you might benefit from additional sessions based on your goals, but accepting them is completely up to you.
For your safety and security, MyTechlogy currently accepts payments via PayPal. Once you select the service you would like to purchase, you will be prompted to pay for it. You can use your debit/credit card to pay via PayPal.
If a cancellation request for a paid coaching session is received from the coach before the scheduled appointment date, you will be issued a full refund of your payment for that session. If the coach doesn’t attend a session at the appointed date and time, you will have the option to reschedule the appointment.
Making a payment confirms your commitment to speak to a coach about your career. We have observed that both, coaching candidates as well as coaches are far more likely to actually attend a coaching meeting when they’re already financially committed to it. We therefore ask that you pay for the session up front so that you and the coach know that both parties are serious and committed to the appointment.
No, there is no fee to register on MyTechlogy. If you choose to engage the services of any one of our coaches, you will pay for those services only, via PayPal.
Are you interested in booking an appointment with a coach, but want to speak with that coach first? You will first have to indicate your interest by clicking on “Book Now”. Once you have made the payment for a coaching session, you can post a question to the coach before actually booking an appointment. The coach will receive your question by e-mail and get back to you. You will also receive an email once the coach responds.
Before you talk with your IT career coach, make sure that you have a couple of learning goals in mind. Make a written note of one to three career challenges or objectives that you want specific feedback and guidance on. An example of a learning goal could be "to get specific feedback on my resume" or "to fine tune my personal elevator pitch" or "to discuss avenues to make a career change."
Generally, coaches take 24-48 hours to accept booking requests. The amount is held with MyTechlogy until the coaching session is completed. In a few cases it may take a coach longer to accept a request due to their schedule being busy.
If you do not hear back from a coach within 48 hours of reaching out to them, please confirm that your message was sent. It's possible that your coach did reply but the email ended up in a spam or promotions folder in your email account. You can also see the replies to your messages here.
To ensure that new messages do not get lost in your spam or junk folders, adjust your email filter settings to allow incoming messages from no-reply@mytechlogy.com.
Because spam and junk mail filters may vary from one email application (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, etc.) to another, we recommend that you follow the spam filter settings instructions for your specific email provider.
If you still haven’t heard back from your coach, let us know at feedback@mytechlogy.com. We'll do our best to get in touch with the coach and confirm their availability. In most cases the coach does follow up with the candidate shortly after.
We understand that it can be frustrating to message a coach and not receive a response right away. We encourage coaches to respond as soon as possible, and even require coaches to reply to new messages within 48 hours. There may be a chance that the coach is temporarily without access to the internet or email and simply cannot respond to you at the moment.
If you change your mind after your session is confirmed by your coach, you can cancel and reschedule your meeting session. In order to cancel and reschedule a session you will need to log in to your account and go to your appointment status in the My Services page. You can then cancel the current appointment and reschedule it.
Once a session is completed, we cannot issue a refund unless the coach doesn’t turn up for the scheduled session. In the event that a coach becomes aware that he or she may be unable to attend the session the standard process is that they will attempt to communicate their inability to attend to you in advance and provide you the option of rescheduling the appointment. If you did not receive a communication from the coach before the appointment, please let us know and we will get in touch with the coach to find out what happened.. If a refund is due to you the amount will be refunded to you via PayPal. We do strongly recommend, however, that you first try to express any questions, concerns or comments to your coach. In nearly all cases, your coach will be able to provide a resolution as long as you continue to communicate with them.
Results may vary from one individual to another. It really depends on the specific nature of coaching sought. That said, if you have set clear learning goals with your coach you should expect to make concrete progress toward them in time. Depending on what your learning goals are, you may want to work with your coach more than once.
You will be able to leave a review for your coach after you complete your coaching session. Reviews help other IT professionals choose the best coach for their needs, so be sure to leave your coach a review to share how your experience went. The link to leave a review will be enabled next to your appointment details on your My Services page.
