career counselling career guidance
Based on the advice given by the career counsellor, you decide your career path. So, it becomes imperative that career counselling is done by a seasoned expert who has got a sound knowledge about that particular field. A piece of good or bad advice can have a major impact on your career.
A trained and expert career counsellor can make your career decisions very easy.
What matters is a skill in any activity or task you perform, I as a Career Counsellor would be able to understand the personality trait of an individual were i have obtained skills about understanding the personality traits of a human being.
As all fingers are not the same every human being has different likes and dislikes in what he would do and what he would not like to do. So its important for people to understand the importance of why career counseling can be done by Career Counsellors only
Career counselling is a pious ritual. Counsellors interact with candidates of young and impressionable minds and empower them to chart a career course ,In fact course of life . The process is dynamically complex. Interplay of a candidates personality, interests and values with the Skills & abilities have to be synergised positively.Candidates aspirations have to be finally aligned in the backdrop of these inputs. Absolute devout and passionate counsellors with high grade skill sets and experience in the field are realistically equipped to handle and process such critical endeavours. Lack of knowledge or experience can result in irreversible and highly avoidable damages of permanent nature. Hence it is imperative that career counselling be undertaken only by experts in the field for optimum results.
A career counsellor or analyst is somebody whose career is to create right career paths.So he/ she is the one who keeps themselves updated with different fields and options to get into it.Career counselling should always be done by an expert career counsellor as they will keep every aspect in mind while determining your career path rather than just telling you to do what most of the people around are doing.Indian mentality is that when you have an elder( Grand father/ uncles) at home why do you need to pay for a wise advice,So,to be clear and crisp our elders and uncles etc either they are professors,teachers,retired personnel's etc.must be well versed in there fields of work but they are not aware of all the fields and careers that have come up or where already there in demand but because nobody knew had low supply of candidates to join them.They only know what there relatives or close friend kids are doing.
The core objective of career counselling is to get a clarity and affirmation on what a candidate thinks about future. This means that there is an opportunity and need for someone who can provide a perspective towards the choices a candidate envisions to make. Most imprtantly you want this perscpective to be provided by someone who is
A. Trained of the process
B. Keeps YOU (candidate) as the focus of discussion
C. Helps you gain insights about your abilities and potential
D. Wants to partner with you in your career journey with regular interventions.
