Importance of choosing the right career path during education.
They say if you love what you do, you never have to work a day in your life. Not all of us are lucky enough to be working in jobs that we really enjoy. When generation Y was growing up in India, the more accepted and therefore preferred education streams were medicine and engineering. Not much attention was given to where the interest or the competence of the individual lay. As the Indian economy and the job market in the country began to open up, parents and their wards became aware of a more diverse set of career choices. Role models in sports and other off beat careers began to emerge. Movies such as Aamir Khan’s 3 Idiots helped expose an entire generation of parents and students to the perils of forcing the wrong career choice onto children.
More choices always come with more questions and more confusion. A survey of class 10 students revealed that a large number were not sure what careers they would like to choose, yet they are at a critical juncture where they need to choose which subjects to keep, in class 11 and which ones to give up. The wrong choice is causing organizations to lose millions of dollars, every year, in attrition, re-training and low morale costs. But the costs of choosing the wrong career are not limited to companies alone, young professionals go through demotivation and even depression. How can we help young students identify the right career path during high school?
Deciding on a career:
Deciding a career boils down to assessing 3 primary requirements:
Understanding ones interests
Determining financial feasibility
Gauging future prospects
A lot of schools are introducing personality and SWOT analysis early in their curriculum. A student’s interests, strengths and personality play a big part in determining which careers will provide them with the most personal satisfaction. There are many free resources available help high school students figure out which careers they’re best suited for. These online career assessment websites give students the opportunity to answer questions about themselves and their interests, and then get immediate feedback about the careers that best fit their personality.
Career counseling is also a useful tool in choosing a career. Career Counseling is not a one day event; rather it is a process which occurs over time, which can help a student feel confident they have explored their options and made the most appropriate choice. The earlier the process of Career Counseling is begun, the more thorough and effective the search process can be for the student. The process of Career Counseling is an active one. The ultimate aim is for a student finds the major which is consistent with one’s values, interests, skills, and abilities.
Internships can teach students more about what they do and what they don’t want to do. No one’s career path is a straight line. Everyone starts off with a vision of their ideal job, but this vision is really just a guess based purely on hypotheticals. A funny thing often happens when someone starts working at their ideal job, they realize it’s not so ideal for them after all. Internships are a unique opportunity to test drive different positions to see which ride students enjoy most. Students should utilize their summer holidays to intern in different roles and organizations to see which roles excite them and could financially sustain them, through their careers.
