Hey, it’s Joakim! Careers adviser in the far south of Sweden. Welcome to my personal and professional site, please feel free to review various aspects of my work and practice in Career Development and Higher Education. I am still adding links and documents, but hope that everything will be fully up to date soon.
This website is accessible and entirely free for career counselors and counseling students. Here, you will find innovative and educational ideas on how artificial intelligence and digital tools can complement our analog methods. I hope you feel inspired as you explore new ways to integrate technology with traditional practices.
Please get in touch if I might be of service or to forge connections. The views represented in this website are purely mine and do not represent the views of my current employer.
