Since my childhood in Portugal, I have always enjoyed learning and sharing knowledge, and beyond that, I have developed a genuine appreciation for human beings. Over the years, I have improved my ability and passion for communication, adapting myself to different cultures and environments without losing my identity, valuing my branding, self-discipline, and satisfaction in inspiring others to overcome their challenges. These characteristics and abilities had a strong impact on the construction of my professional career.
Since 2011, I have been working with Human Resources, Personal and Professional Development, Recruitment, and Professional Training in different environments and with professionals from different contexts. In 2017, I approached International Career Consulting and, since then, I have been specializing my work in this area of expertise. Throughout the time, I developed international business partnerships that led me to be a mentor and advisor to directors, managers, leaders and clients from different segments and hierarchical levels.
I have a master’s degree in Social and Organisational Psychology from ISCTE – Instituto Universitário de Lisboa and a degree in Psychology from Universidade da Beira Interior in Portugal. In addition, I am qualified as a Human Resources Analyst at Fundação Getúlio Vargas in Brazil, and certified in Human Resources Management from CIPD at the National College of Ireland in Ireland. I have numerous personal and professional experiences among Portugal, Brazil, and Ireland, which are countries where I lived for a few years, as well as several trips, professional relationships, and friendships around the world. I speak fluent Portuguese from Portugal and Brazil (believe me, they are very different!), English and Spanish.
In 2019, I decided to follow my intuition and believe in my potential by dedicating exclusively to the development of my brand, Rita Costa Career and Business Services. I challenged myself, once again, to leave my comfort zone and put into practice my mission of developing and transforming professionals and businesses worldwide.
Through my consultancy, I’ve been helping out qualified professionals to develop their international careers with a focus on Europe, as well as companies that want to develop their employees and, consequently, their businesses. Whether in the identification and development of essential skills for the defined goals in the short, medium, and long-term career direction, in the knowledge of tools and strategies to achieve the expected career results, or in assisting businesses in the development of their professionals and in the transformation of internal and external relationships.
Like my clients, I also look for constant growth, maturity, modernization, and inspiration to continue my mission with professionals and businesses. The relationships I have established with my clients and the goals they have achieved make me a better person and professional every day. Aiming to work on the specific needs of each client, my consultancy is customized and focused on the direction and support necessary to achieve their goals. In this way, it is possible to significantly improve confidence, focus, and motivation through appropriate tools and strategies. The consultancy goes far beyond training; in most cases, it is a project of self-knowledge and rescue of these professionals’ self-confidence.
To develop and transform professionals and businesses in the world.
