Nithin, a civil engineer from Mysuru, Karnataka, wasn’t enjoying his on-site job of supervising construction work, especially having to deal with the heat. He came to us looking for some guidance on where to take his career next. What really stood out about Nithin was how open he was to listening and reflecting on his options. He still wanted to stay in civil engineering but knew he didn’t want to continue with supervision tasks.
After he took our career assessment, we discovered that his strengths were in design, with a strong interest in sustainability. Our career expert suggested that he could build a career in the sustainable development field, which sparked his interest. Nithin was excited about the idea and started looking into ways to build his skills in this area. He eventually found TERI’s Master’s program in Sustainable Development Practice, which was the perfect fit. Within a year, he was enrolled and ready to dive into this new chapter of his career.
