A career couselor is that fellow, who can help you know your real skills, abilities and show a fair picture of what all one can do to lead a happy, sucessful life.
Career is not only about top listed vacancies - its about happiness, feel good and balanced life. Only a well trained career counselor can give you that.
Well , when we are sick we go to a doctor when we want to learn a new skill we go to a specialist trainer . But when we need to take the most important decision of our life that is choosing a Career, which leads to our job which we spend 30% of our life time on, then isn t it necessary to Consult or consider a specialist opinion or advise before choosing a Right Career for you.
That s how important a Career Counselor is before taking Important Career decisions which could be choosing a Right course and college or considering the higher studies opinion or abroad studies Consultation.
Career coach or counselor helps you decide which is best for you considering all possibilities of future career opportunities , your skills and abilities and what could be right for you.
Career counselling help us to understand our strengths and weaknesses and then match them with our skills and interest so that we can get the suitable career .It is beneficial for both short_ term and long-term success in professional life. Spending time with a career counsellor enables us to recognize the value as a professional. Career counsellor helps to understand the career options, that they have, and how to pursue them.
A trained, experienced and holistic career counsellor is like a mirror who helps your reflect your occupational side. Schools test you on your academic subjects, however rarely do they provide an insight into your interests, values and beliefs. So a counsellor who is a trained psychologist and has extensive experience in the work industry (not just counselling) provides a very significant input that can be very helpful
