career counselling career guidanceA student’s career decision is be easily influenced by external factors and so for any aspiring learner, a career decision is typically influenced by various factors such as :
? Parental pressure,
? Peer pressure,
? Society trends,
? Quick settling/ money career options,
? Fast Money (less knowledge)
? Wrong prejudices about careers in general
Counselling requires empathy, psychological understanding and current knowledge of all the professions and career options available out there. Hence it is advised to resort to professional counsellors and career guides.
Trained/Expert career counselors know the right process and structure to guide someone. They are bound by the rules of counseling, hence they will provide you with unbiased and client centric approach.
Expert career counselor will also guide you to find right solution keeping your circumstances in perspective. They tend to be ethical.
I consider career counsellors role to that of a Doctor .Like what a qualified doctor does is to talk to u patiently,understand your pain points ,probes further on the short term and long term implications of all that the patient has to say and based on all that either recommends a test for diagnosis followed by a remedy or otherwise offer a suitable remedy rightaway.
An expert career counsellor acts like a doctor ....she understands your core values /skills /interest /aptitude .....your choice or selection of a preferred career path ....analyses the possibilities ,implications,and last but not the least suggests you alternatives,or mentors you to tread that path of your choice.
Remember ,career is not something "one size firs all".Each individual is unique and should be guided in a unique ,customused way to acheive their career goals.
Hence consulting an expert career counsellor can save a lot of time and frustration in later years of life.
Hope that helps!!!
