Career Counselling

There is greater recognition than before among educators that Career Counselling is as important as any other subject taught in the school, especially at high school. Why?

  • New career disciplines are emerging rapidly in the industry globally, traditional disciplines are either becoming stagnant or obsolete.
  • Competition in traditional disciplines is increasing exponentially putting even greater stress on students and professionals to succeed at any cost, resulting in all type of psychological issues.
  • There are ~6200 engineering colleges in India producing ~1.5 million graduates every year but only 5% of them are employable, resulting in mass unemployment of Engineers*.
  • The situation in the field of medicine is reverse, there are too few colleges and too much demand. Huge disparity in demand and supply is making cost of medical education prohibitive.
  • Disciplines such as Finance, Law, Mass Media & Journalism, Economics, Design, Advertising, Pure Sciences, Research, Education, Sports, Paramedical, Social Sciences & Psychology and others have not yet seen students competing to the fullest extent, and therefore remain to be tapped fully.
  • Process driven jobs are getting automated with a greater pace than ever, leaving a large number of people in traditional disciplines unemployed.

To top it all, Indian education system equips students with in-depth knowledge of subjects but teaches very little about application. A sizable proportion of students feel lost as they are unsure of occupations and career discipline a course/ subject stream will lead to.

We are here to fill the gap, by providing much need exposure to students about various occupations and career choices available in the global industry so that students can make informed decisions.

Out personalised one-to-one career counselling and career awareness workshops provide much needed, first-hand understanding of available occupations by practitioners in those occupations.

Personality Assessment

Ever wonder why some people don’t find satisfaction in workplaces even after having exceptional depth of knowledge and keen interest in their work domain? The answer may lye in core facets of their personality that do not align with their occupation or work environment. One’s ability to navigate through the career has a direct link with their personality preferences and the work environments they are in. Different job profiles or occupations within an industry may require certain personality traits in order to sustain and succeed. Any conflict in the behaviours that the job demands and the individual’s core traits may result in dissatisfaction and constant feeling of getting stuck in a job.
 
Myers and Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) based on Carl Jung’s theory of personality types is one of the most reliable and widely used personality assessment instruments used in the world for self-discovery and career suitability.
MBTI® clearly lays out differences in people’s personalities in terms of 4 dichotomies
 
  • Introversion or Extraversion: How an individual draws energy? Internally (internal thought process) or from external world.
  • Sensing or Intuition: How people take in and process information?
  • Thinking or Feeling: How people make decisions?
  • Judging or Perceiving: How people approach outer world and structure their thought process?

Essay / SOP Guidance 

“Admission officers in the Universities look for genuine stories and not the fabricated ones”
 
Why an SOP is crucial?
Many top colleges and universities require students to write and submit a Statement of Purpose (SOP) as part of their application for admission. SOP is considered as important a document as academic background of the student. Some colleges give SOP greater weightage than the academic background due to their policy of selecting candidates who have a well-rounded profile.
 
SOP should be written by the student in their own words and at minimum needs to include their reasons for choosing a University/ College and Course, their suitability for it, their interests, career objectives and educational background.
Some colleges use a few short questions to gather information from students on their life experiences, successes, challenges faced, learnings etc. instead of calling it an SOP.
 
Irrespective of the format, SOP needs to be genuine and authentic. Key is to ensure that it is written by the students in their own words and it covers all relevant details of their life journey, learnings, interests and objectives.

How we can help?

We believe that a fixed structure of SOP does not apply to all student profiles. In other words, it is student’s profile, which should decide the SOP structure and therefore it needs to be personalised.
 
We help students through interactive sessions to unearth their most relevant achievements, experiences, learnings, challenges overcome and equip them to compose their own personal story.  
 
Key to developing a relevant and original SOP is seeing it from the perspective of university admissions officers and our Green Belt Global Career counsellors possess requisite insight
