VICTOR: AN EXCITING NEW CAREER AT 37

A test case

The case: Victor, 37, has been working for 15 years as a machinist and toolmaker in a factory. He loves his job and is appreciated by both his colleagues and boss. Unfortunately, Victor had to take a medical leave following a work accident which left him with 3 fingertips missing. Ouch!

The challenge: Despite a few surgeries giving him back some dexterity, Victor can no longer manipulate the tools he uses at work and cannot go back to the same workstation. He needs to find something else, but what? Victor has many productive years ahead of him and his expertise is valuable.

The solution: After 8 sessions with a career counsellor, Victor learned to make peace with his physical limitations and honed into the deep experience and knowledge he has acquired over the years. He focussed on related interests and skills, which made him an ideal candidate for a position as a CAD drafter. After a few refresher courses, he relaunched his career and is once again an active member of his employer’s workforce.
