In the business field, the roles of a career coach, career counselor, and job mentor are well-established and highly sought after. These professionals provide guidance and tips on how to find the right job and achieve career success. However, it is essential to consider how these services can be adapted to NGOs that work with foreign populations, mainly migrants and refugees. What are career coaching and counseling implications for these organizations, and how can they best support their clients in achieving their career goals? Exploring these questions can help NGOs provide more comprehensive and practical support to those they serve.



Let's discuss how a career consultant can help migrants, refugees, and foreigners with their job search. The employment consultations aim to make finding, securing, or maintaining a job in the Czech labor market as easy as possible. The team stands here to provide friendly assistance by offering information about their rights and obligations and helping them navigate the process of finding the right employment opportunity.


If a career consultant is working with migrants, refugees, and foreigners, it's important to embody a set of key values to effectively assist and support individuals navigating the challenges of relocating and establishing their careers in a new country. Here are some key values that you should consider when start working with a career consultation: 

  • Intercultural Sensitivity. Respect for diverse cultures and an understanding of the challenges migrants may face due to cultural differences. The career consultation should be able to appreciate and navigate cultural nuances to provide tailored advice and support.

  • Empathy. Compassion and the ability to understand and share the feelings of migrants as they navigate the complexities of a new environment. It's important that a career consultation would have a non-judgmental approach to recognizing and addressing the unique challenges faced by each individual.

  • Cross-Cultural Communication. Strong communication skills, especially in cross-cultural contexts, to bridge communication gaps and facilitate understanding between clients and the local job market.

  • Promotion of Diversity and Inclusion. Actively work towards creating a workplace and community that promotes diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunities for all, irrespective of cultural backgrounds.


The role of a multicultural counselor is truly inspiring, as they are entrusted with the responsibility of creating an environment that upholds the values of equity, mutual respect, open communication and appreciation for diversity. Through their words and actions, they foster meaningful dialogues that enable individuals from different cultures to coexist in harmony and achieve personal growth.
