I consider career counsellors role to that of a Doctor .Like what a qualified doctor does is to talk to u patiently,understand your pain points ,probes further on the short term and long term implications of all that the patient has to say and based on all that either recommends a test for diagnosis followed by a remedy or otherwise offer a suitable remedy rightaway.

An expert career counsellor acts like a doctor ....she understands your core values /skills /interest /aptitude .....your choice or selection of a preferred career path ....analyses the possibilities ,implications,and last but not the least suggests you alternatives,or mentors you to tread that path of your choice.

Remember ,career is not something "one size firs all".Each individual is unique and should be guided in a unique ,customused way to acheive their career goals.

Hence consulting an expert career counsellor can save a lot of time and frustration in later years of life.

Hope that helps!!!

We have a very bad culture in India that is to advise with confidence.

Teachers are the people who believe that they know everything about the career. Teacher knows many things about his students but he doesn't know which is the best career for his students.

Because he doesn't know much about career opportunities.. actually no one can know that much about career options...

There are 12000 careers in the world. How can you say that which is the best match for your students or your son or your daughter.

You must have the intense training to be a career counselor. You also should be able to work with artificial intelligence guided computers...

Fortunately we have a great network like a edumilestone... So, an expert career counsellor can get miraculous result working with artificial intelligence guided by artificial intelligence.

It is not possible for a common man or a common parents are common teachers to guide student for the rest of the life

Most of the students lives are ruined because of this cheap counselling. Unknowingly with all their good intention they misguid their children n their students. 

They will do it for very long that is what I understand but you should be very much aware before you choose any career or you give guidance to anybody.

Common man cannot operate like a doctor.. most of the doctors are also not very expert in operation. It requires very special kinds of skills.

Same way career counselling is a very very unique skill and very less people are blessed with the skills.

Career Counsellors are trained to understand human behaviour as well as gauge an individual s aptitude, personality, career interests to name a few through a plethora of psychometric assessments. Given the thorough training that the experts have been through, a Career Counsellor understands that an individual s background and context needs to be taken into account before interpreting the outcomes of a report. Suggestions and recommendations are offered keeping the realities of the individual seeking career counselling as well as the outside world in mind.
