Have few questions related to that -
I did one with a famous career counsellor back in the day (20+ years ago). My psychometric told me I should be an architect. L**** Mera I should be one. Now I help people not lose their money over shit liddis
Are you happy with whatever career path you choose? Do you ever feel you should've done architecture or something?
Not one of the first 1000 things that comes to mind. Am I happy? No. I want to write books. But outside of that - this is the closest I'm getting to shit I'm good at / shit I'm paid well for conundrum.
Psychometric tests are useless your priorities will change as your career and life evolves
Exactly. So you are saying it's useless to get career counselling?
Career counseling is a scam
Are those psychometric tests based on Briggs-meyers test ?
If yes , then they're totally BS.
Could be
I have delved into this industry a little. It's mostly fluff not much useful. Most important thing about career is what field /direction to choose that you have to decide yourself. No one answer that question for you. It will take introspection and experiment.
Once you zero in on a field the info is available for free on internet or best is to talk to people in that field. And take a plunge.
Rest let me know if you have any specific question. Also if you want i can put you in tough with experienced career counsellors.
No specific questions as such. It just is a thought in my mind that they can help anyone to Guage their strong points as well as their interests. Is that all hokum then?
Have few questions related to that -
Has anyone tried career counseling? Is it useful? I have 7 YOE and have changed domains 3 times now but still don't see a clear path.
I have a cousin who’s just out of college completing BCom. She has no clue what next. I’d want her to talk to someone who can guide her (read: tell her all possible options) on what are her strengths/weaknesses and possible career option...
