Transformation in a career context often requires letting go of long-held beliefs about success, stability, and self-worth. Many clients come into the coaching process with deeply internalized narratives-stories they've been told or have told themselves about what they can and cannot do. Careers by Design offers Canada's top-rated 1-on-1 interview coaching services, designed to help individuals conquer interview anxiety and transform job interviews into offers. Their unique “Connect Head & Heart” approach blends confidence-building with personalized strategy, allowing clients to authentically shine and land their ideal roles. Mock Interviews Toronto Led by Jeanet Lamoca, a certified coach with over 25 years of experience, the service focuses on practical skill-building rather than following a rigid curriculum. Jeanet provides direct support to identify blind spots, boost confidence, and help clients craft compelling stories and answers tailored to today’s interview landscape—especially virtual interviews and behavioral questions.. These stories may stem from cultural norms, family expectations, educational experiences, or years spent in environments that didn't foster growth. One of the most powerful aspects of coaching is uncovering these narratives, questioning their validity, and replacing them with perspectives that reflect your actual strengths, desires, and potential.
As clients continue to integrate the coaching process into their lives, they often discover that their relationship with time itself begins to shift. No longer caught in a frantic race to meet deadlines or accumulate achievements for the sake of external validation, they start to view time as a resource to be managed intentionally. This new perspective allows them to prioritize what truly matters and let go of unimportant distractions. Their approach to work becomes more focused and strategic, aligning with their deeper values and goals rather than reacting to immediate demands or pressures. This newfound mastery over time enhances their ability to execute with precision and clarity, while also creating space for reflection, rest, and rejuvenation.
At the heart of their services lies one-on-one customized career coaching that helps clients discover their strengths, clarify their goals, and build a clear, actionable roadmap.

When you choose Careers by Design, you're not just getting a career coach-you're gaining a dedicated partner invested in your future. Our mission is to help you create a career and life you love. Reach out today to start a conversation, ask questions, and take the first step toward a more fulfilling and successful professional life. Let us show you what's possible when you're empowered to design your career from the inside out.
Clients who've worked with Careers by Design often report breakthroughs that extend beyond their careers. Many experience improvements in their relationships, personal decision-making, and sense of self-worth. They become better communicators, stronger leaders, and more intentional in how they navigate life. These ripple effects are a testament to the depth and breadth of the coaching experience.
This work is not about fixing you-because you were never broken. It's about reconnecting you with the parts of yourself that may have been buried, overlooked, or undervalued. It's about rediscovering the confidence, clarity, and courage that are already within you and helping you harness them to create a career that feels like home. Every step of the way, we walk beside you-not with answers, but with the right questions, the right tools, and the belief that you are capable of far more than you've been led to believe.
From flexible Zoom sessions to in-depth assessments and a compassionate coaching style, Careers by Design delivers a high-touch, personalized experience. Their success is built on decades of expertise, real-world results, and a genuine desire to help individuals design a career and life they love.
The coaching process is not about giving advice or offering cookie-cutter solutions. It's about collaboration. You bring your lived experience, your ambitions, your doubts, and your expertise in your own life. We bring structure, insight, deep listening, and the ability to challenge you in ways that are constructive and growth-oriented. This mutual respect creates a powerful space where real transformation can happen-not through pressure, but through clarity and choice.
In addition to career coaching, Careers by Design provides access to assessments, including psychometric tools, with licensed feedback that helps individuals make informed decisions. Their programs are flexible and designed to fit busy schedules, offering convenient Zoom sessions that eliminate the hassle of commuting and allow for a more personalized experience.
This kind of deep work is not always easy. It often involves facing discomfort, stepping into vulnerability, and being willing to explore unfamiliar territory. That's why psychological safety and trust are foundational elements of every coaching relationship we build. We take care to create a space where you can be honest without fear of judgment, where mistakes and doubts are welcomed as part of the growth process, and where your experiences-both professional and personal-are treated with respect. It's in this space that many clients experience their biggest breakthroughs, realizing not only what they want, but why they deserve to have it.
If you're feeling stuck, uncertain, or ready for a change, Careers by Design invites you to start the conversation. With the right support, tools, and mindset, your next career chapter can be your most fulfilling yet. Let their team guide you toward clarity, confidence, and a career that reflects your true potential.
As the journey continues, the focus may evolve. What begins as a job search might unfold into a broader life redesign. What starts as performance coaching may deepen into values realignment. Whatever the direction, the process remains grounded in compassion, clarity, and co-creation. Because in the end, this isn't just about your career-it's about your life. And we're here to help you live it more fully, more authentically, and more powerfully than ever before.

They understand that uncertainty, fear, and doubt often accompany career decisions, and they incorporate tools to manage stress, build resilience, and cultivate a grounded mindset.
