Career Counseling
well you answered a lot of questions in your exam but there is
one question which is hovering a lot of students what is the next step what is
the next step is someone question which hovers for a class tenth class 12th graduate postgraduate students at every point of time and this episode is going to focus on what are the processes that are followed in growth center for removing all this career queries.
whether you like it or not first comes parents parental
expectations we live in a society where parents expectations the influence marks
the thought process of the child and yes while taking a career decision parents expectations to play a big role with parent expectations the students of this new age would like to know what the current trends every student beat a class 10 12 or even at a graduate level would like to know what is the current trend in the market is this hot or this is not is what the question comes into
the mind and yes a media to influences us in some way or the other and so by
choosing of course our a career what is portrayed in a cinema or a television
serial or whatever comes on the web series students to get influenced while taking the career decision basically students are not aware lack of awareness of the various career options maybe they have heard or they have not heard about it most of the times it's like I was not aware I didn't knew this is the process or I didn't knew this are the subjects .
to be taken so though there is a Google or though there is a so much of career
information still we find students and parents unaware of the options in front of them with parental expectations current trends and also lack of information the biggest influencer being
the friends the peer the students peer group makes a big difference what is my
friend going to take is my beastie going .
to be there we are all going to be together oh my friend has taken this
course so why not I what is suited for your friend may not be suited to you is
something you need to think about but we see peer pressure being one of the major
influencers it is not only up for the students but also for the parents the
next influencer is a very quite an interesting one today's students like to do something different something new something off wait something off track.
they like to do something which nobody has done or should nobody has ventured
in the family so new and offbeat careers the introduction of so many courses in
various forms through various universities in India as well as
can be also one of the influences when students would like to take it up too
much focus only on one parameter and that is interest is also one of
the biggest influencers so you see why taking a decision at any time and the
most common influencer across India is the percentage depending upon the
percentage the course or the career will be taken so percentage also is one of
the influencers as counselors we have seen with the practice in so many years
these are a few of the influences that influence students and parents to take decision at various level beat class 10th 12th graduation or even post graduation so now that you know the influencers you need to know how should we get out of this influencers and growth center we follow certain processes these processes are scientifically designed and developed throughout the years we have seen that it has given us far-reaching benefits for the students and their parents to come at a proper decision-making process first you know we need to take an intake
the students proper intake has to be taken as well as the parents intake
followed by psychometric assessments and then followed by one-to-one counseling
session with the child and the parent so it's a process driven thing to
facilitate your decision making process at growth center when a child comes for
aptitude test first he has an interaction with the counselor where the
counselor tries to take the personal details the educational details she
tries to understand the concerns and the expectations of students as well as
parents the main reason to know why they have approached us so this process is
known as intake session very interaction with the child happens with the
counselor thereafter the child is made comfortable and informed about the importance of undergoing the aptitude tests and the day process when we talk about aptitude test is a very
colloquially used word basically we call it a psychometric assessment and at group center we conduct three main test,
one is intelligence test second one is the aptitude test and third one is the
personality test in the last phase which is the counseling process so once the
child has undergone psychometric assessment for around four
to five hours then after a counseling session is provided to the child along
with parents where an in-depth discussion of the test score is done followed by career recommendation on the basis of the potentials of the child an in-depth discussion and guidance on
various scores option suggested on the basis of the potentials the outcome of the career counseling session is that you are now equipped with the career
decision-making process which includes typically you get a career.
