July 21, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Brisbane, Australia — July 21, 2007 – With Australia experiencing virtual full employment, Blaze Unlimited Pty Ltd offers an innovative one-stop shop for individuals and organisations needing career coaching and workforce management services.

The overriding goal at Blaze Unlimited is to make work fun, according to Managing Director Sean Reddell. “We help individuals and companies find the balance between work and play,” he explained. “We also leverage from peoples natural preferences, strengths, aptitudes and abilities to provide them with the most rewarding, challenging and enjoyable work possible.”

Blaze Unlimited takes a unique approach to providing professional services. Its career coaching advisors view job seekers as the clients and work closely with them to meet their needs. “We build relationships with clients through a genuine compassion for and interest in their careers and lives,” Reddell said.

The primary individual client for Blaze Unlimited’s services is someone at any stage of their career and wants to pursue a new direction. The company also caters to immigrants seeking meaningful work in Australia and those who are returning to the workforce after having raised their families. Regardless of the motivation, Blaze Unlimited can help anyone who is not happy with their current career situation. “Our main clients are mostly those who are dissatisfied with what they’re doing and want help exploring or creating options as to what to do next,” Reddell explained. “Our services then move into helping them access and secure identified opportunities.”

Blaze Unlimited provides everything clients need in one place. Services include psychological testing; career counseling in person, by phone or over the Internet; Web access to materials; introduction to recruiters (in some states); and support with applications and interviews. Career Planning is also available for those who enjoy their work and need assistance getting to the next level. “We provide a one-stop service for our clients—everything they need to develop and implement their preferred career plan is available from us,” Reddell said. “The breadth and level of our one-on-one of support is the highest possible, especially when compared to many of our competitors such as recruiters, resume writers or institutional counselors.”

At Blaze Unlimited, comprehensive services are also available to organisational clients. The menu of offerings includes workforce management consulting; attraction and retention programs; work life balance; effective management skills for Generation Y; professional speaking services; outplacement or employee transition programs; individualised management coaching; and recruitment and selection. “We still spend time doing organisational consulting, so we are well positioned to understand the current market requirements and what organisations are looking for in their applicants and workforce.”

Career coaching and other services at Blaze Unlimited are provided locally in professional offices or remotely through Web and telephone support. All coaches rendering services are qualified career advisors and have a strong background in corporate human resource management, according to Reddell. “They understand the theory related to individual career management,” he said. “They also understand the organisational context and all the approaches to recruitment and selection that our clients may face in their job search. Some coaches also have psychology qualifications. All have their Blue Card (a certification required in Australia when working with children).”

Within the next 18 months, Blaze Unlimited will be expanding its services to other states within Australia. The company is also developing an online, self-paced career planning model that will be made available globally. The release of the planning tool will make it possible for anyone anywhere to enhance their career satisfaction and lives from the comfort of their own home.
