Whatever a student scores in 12th standard, it is always confusing that what career option he should choose after that. Even if he wants to take up engineering, there are multiple branches among which he has to choose. This creates quite a confusion among the students since they are not aware of what holds in what branch. Most of the advice that they get from parents, teachers and friends is biased by their own experiences and is based on limited information. If a particular student does good in computer science, his parents and teachers start giving his examples to other students about his success and asking them to follow him. They forget that all the students are different and have different motivations to succeed. It is not possible for all the students to take admission in a same branch and succeed. At the stage of starting graduation, students need to understand their own aspirations and goals and try to match them with their skills so that they can choose an appropriate career option.

At this point, she thought of taking professional help and her teachers advised her to take career counselling. While searching online career guidance websites, she landed up on CareerGuide.com’s website.
