Uncovering Strengths and Passions: A Career Counseling Journey, Batch of 2029

Student X had only six hours to choose between architecture and psychology. I explained the process, which starts with a career assessment followed by a career counseling session. However, her parents suggested skipping the career assessment. The one-hour counseling session focused on understanding her personality, interests, dreams, desires, strengths, and weaknesses. I provided her with frameworks to think boldly and express her thoughts clearly. Additionally, I showed her a sample career report to illustrate how we can capture her inner traits and map out suitable career options.

The session concluded with the decision that she would take the career test, and both of us would reflect on the discussion and make the final decision in the morning. Student X is an extremely hardworking individual with a deep hunger for learning. She is also a kinesthetic learner. In the morning, she made the final decision to pursue architecture. She will start her course in August at the Gopalan School of Architecture and Planning,Bangalore, India.
