Meridian Coaches partner with Business School students and alumni to help them determine their professional goals, develop a career action plan, and learn to effectively present themselves in order to demonstrate their added value to the business community. We engage students and alumni where they are and help them achieve their career transition, career management, or entrepreneurial goals through Coach supported proprietary methodology. Our processes are user-friendly, step-by-step proprietary processes designed exclusively for busy Business School students or alumni who want results. Coaching is delivered virtually via phone, email, and video-conferencing. Monthly progress reports are provided to the sponsoring university to validate the return on investment.

Meridian offers a comprehensive career methodology platform that was developed exclusively for the B-school student and alumni.  Our career system includes content and exercises to help meet Career Management (Quantum Career Momentum), Career Transition (Ultimate Career Launch), Entrepreneurial pathways. These processes ascribe a common career development language to be used among students, coaches and your team. Each process carries with it specific deliverables, but offers maximum flexibility to meet a student or alumni where they are, and to empower them to achieve their ultimate career objectives.  Our methodology is used within the Career Coaching program.  It is also available through a licensing agreement. 

Meridian's Coaching services include access to our proprietary career center portal, Meridian Career Navigator, allowing Coaches to point students and alumni to online modules and resources. Clients engage in self-directed assignments between coaching sessions in order to prepare for their next meeting.  This practice allows the coaching sessions to stay focused on individualized problem-solving rather than skills development, facilitating faster and more targeted results.  Clients can access this component 24-7.   Branding with the school's logo and other customized options are available.

Meridian offers professional resume review services to support your career center needs. Resume review services include an intense review and feedback of an existing resume document, formatting services, and a final edit and proof. Resume review services may compliment Coaching services that focus primarily on the document content.

Utilizing Meridian University Solutions for your career center staffing can be a cost effective alternative to the expense, administrative burden, and liability of a traditional employer-employee relationship.  Entrusting Meridian with your human resource functions allows you to focus on your career center activities and provides administrative relief from many employment responsibilities such as payroll, income tax reporting, employee benefits, workers compensation, and general liability.
