Abstract
This article is an autoethnographic reflection of my experience working as a careers consultant in the university I graduated from. Drawing on the ideas of constructing identity and Systems Theory Framework, I have considered the positives and drawbacks for the careers consultant as an individual, as well as potential impacts on the students supported, and implications for practice. This account seeks to support career development professionals to navigate the balance of delivering CEIAG as an ‘insider’ with lived academic experience, and also as an ‘outsider’ providing a professional service.
