Story of Malvika who took an informed decision with the help of career counselling

There are thousands of students in the country who are bright enough to achieve more than 90% marks in the 10^th and 12 but are still unable to decide what career can be suitable for Malvika. The reason behind this is limited information and lack of awareness. In most of the cases, students are aware of only a few courses and the information that they receive is from their teachers and parents only. This creates a gap of information which could have been filled with the help of expert guidance. This lack of awareness leads many bright students of the country to the careers which are not suitable for them and these students, even after being good at studies until school level, fail to make a mark in future. The reason is simple, had they been guided to take up a course according to their skills, they could have performed much better and might have contributed to the field through their acumen.

Malvika ’s Career Dilemma

•  Malvika scored 96% in her 12th and had two options in mind BBA and B.com for her further studies.
•  However she had limited access to information, on careers and future scopes that would match to BBA and B.Com
•  That’s when she found out about CareerGuide through online search and reached out to for professional guidance.

How CareerGuide Helped Her
