Part 1: CUTV News Radio Spotlights Dr. Pam Schilling of Archer Career

Chicago, IL – Dr. Pam Schilling is a career coach and founder of Archer Careers, where she helps individuals navigate their job searches to secure new positions and advance in their careers.

“In a world of career coaches, there are leadership coaches and they want you to be a more effective leader. There are life coaches and they often focus on work life balance,” says Dr. Schilling. “I really care about the match between the individual and their role.”

Companies want to hire great people, says Dr. Schilling, but too often we don’t take the time to think about what's critically important to us, our own values, motivations, and capabilities. Without that, we’re not going to advance. Once we are clear in our choices and priorities, the rest of is simple. We can craft our career by targeting the types of organizations we're searching for, rather than looking for a job with our eyes closed.

“It’s more about finding a great organization with great leaders and managers,” says Dr. Schilling. “If you can find organizations that value and cultivate talent and treat people with respect, you can have a great career and get what you want.”

With a background in strategy building for organizations, today Dr. Schilling coaches clients across a variety of career life stages and in many professions. Her specialty is with those who have particular problems limiting their progression, like interviewing skills.

“In the interview, you want to be authentic, honest and team-oriented, but you also have to think about the sensibility of what the employer is seeking,” says Dr. Schilling.
