Where is a good place to get free careers advice?

I'm 38 by the way. I understand that much free careers advice is aimed at youngsters so I thought I'd mention that.Where is a good place to get free careers advice?
Try http://www.prospects.ac.uk/


It's geared mainly towards UK university graduates but it has a big section, under 'jobs and work', where you can explore different sectors and types of jobs with detailed info on how to get into different fields, what to expect from different types of jobs and so on. Theres also further study and things like that up there, check it out.Where is a good place to get free careers advice?
Read some tips on careers on this site
A career advisor would help anyone I would imagine. I think you would need some sort of idea what you would like to do though.
I am a HR manager and the owner of Get Notices Resume. What is your question?

I think a lot of it depends on what kind of careers advice you want. If it's how to progress your career in the field you are in then you might want to talk to Recruitment Consultants that specialise in your field or use the Internet Job Boards (may of which have careers advice section).





If you are looking for a new career or change of direction then the local Job Centre or College could be a good place to start too.





If you are looking to become self-employed and start a busines then your local Chamber of Commerce and Business Link would be good.





Hope that helps. Good luck.
at a careers advice centre?
Contact a local college/uni. They are always really happy to help irrespective of whether you intend to go there or not.
Have you tried the job centre? If you give them a call and explain your situation, they'll probably make you an appointment to speak to someone face-to-face.
I would say any job posting web sight, sush as Careerbuilder, Hotjobs, and Indeed. Try the unemployment office, job fairs I know thats where you find jobs, but those people know what the trends are.
