It’s a phrase many employment advisers will recognise:
“I just want a job with no stress.”
But what happens when a client is searching for something that doesn’t really exist?
In this final episode of the series, Claire explores how to respond when clients say they want a stress-free job.
She looks at why this isn’t really about the job itself - but about fear, perception, and confidence.
She shares practical ways to help clients break down what “stress” actually means, identify specific triggers, and begin building confidence in their ability to cope.
If you’re working with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or fearful about returning to work, this episode will give you a simple, practical way to move the conversation forward.

43. The Coaching Skill Every Employment Adviser Needs
Listening is one of the most important skills in employment coaching. But there’s a big difference between simply hearing what a client says and truly listening to understand them.
In this episode, Claire explores the concept of active listening and why it can transform your conversations with clients. She introduces the OARS method from motivational interviewing - a simple framework using open questions, affirmations, reflections and summaries - and explain how these responses can help clients feel heard, understood and supported.
She also shares one of the most powerful (and often overlooked) coaching techniques: the use of silence.
If you support people through job search, career change or employment barriers, these techniques can help you build stronger relationships and unlock deeper conversations with clients.

She also highlights three common mistakes that jobseekers make on LinkedIn - and how employment advisers can help clients use the platform more effectively.
