This is a very common question that comes to our mind when we think about choosing our career.After all our teachers, senior family members can guide us .So why do we need career counsellors?
To answer this we can pause to think about these questions.......Can our teachers and family members guide us towards a career that best matches with our personality? Do they know about my real strengths that can be best used in a particular career? What about my interests? Are the teachers and family members know about every interests of mine which can be a major point in choosing a career?
We all know it that it is impossible for any teacher to know the details of every student of her class or even the parents are also not equipped to know about every aspect of their child and it is particularly true whne it comes to the choiceof career.
As such we need a career counsellor to assess our personality, interests, values, skill and abilities and match it with the best possible career options available in the market. The career counsellor is particularly trained in this field and hence can be trusted with thier knowledge and expertise to guide us.
