In a very basic term, career counseling is consulting an career expert to solve your career or job relates queries. Like when having a stomach pain you visit a doctor to ease your pain and to recommed you medicines, in same manner you can visit a career counseling centre to get a expert advice on decisions relating your careers and jobs. A career counselor after analysing your psychometric test/career assessment test will recommend you best possible career options and pathway (i. e colleges to apply, entrance exams) to pursue your shortlisted career.
With increasing number of student drop out and working professional quitting or changing their job, career counseling is an need of an hour. One of the main reasons for increase in number college dropout and job quitter is due a simple fact, that people aren't satisfied or interested in their current job profile or college studies. They took. Admission college course simpling because their friends are same course or their parents convinced them to do so same goes with working professionals they enter a job just because of its demand in market or high paying salary but don't bother to check that whether the job requirment matches with their own aptitude, interest or personality. Like in case of engineer, many engineer drop out of studies or land up in sales and marketing jobs which are completly different from thier field of studies. They end up wasting a year and also money. So in avoid these situation is advisable to plan your future ahead by taking by career counseling.
Though it is widely believed only student or job seekers who are confused about career or job requires a counseling but this not the fact, as every should do their career counseling. As career counseling isn't about getting information about a particular career or job it also includes knowing your abilties, learning about alternative and new careers options etc. It basically means making a road map to your future goals. So it advisable for every student.
Pyschometric tests are scientific method used to a guage a person's mental capability and behavioural style.
Many students or parents think they have a basic knowledge about a particular career and can google to know the
best colleges and jobs for the same or they what his/her child is good at and what he wants to become in future
so a a psycometric test is a waste of time amd this where the actual problem lies.
Merely having a basic information about a career or making assumptions like if my child is good in drawing so
he/she can be a designer or if he/she scores high in maths engineering is best career options for him, isn't a
right to decide on person's career. Afterall not all people with talkative personality can have a succesful career
in sales and not all people who have a good aptitude in drawing is assured to be a designer.
