Career Guidance
Discovering what you want from life is the first step to getting it!
For young people of school and university age, and recent graduates, this programme is tailored for all those needing help with school and university choices, and with mapping out initial career choices that will bring success and personal satisfaction.
Initially, many young people are apprehensive about any kind of assessment. They may have little or no idea of what they would like to do, although the majority (and their parents) are determined not to settle for careers offering poor personal and financial rewards.
The aim is to identify your true potential, unearth vital extra skills you didn’t know you had, investigate the available options, and make a realistic plan for the future. Careful assessment followed by objective, professional advice can make all the difference to self-confidence and reassurance in your ability to achieve your career goals.
If any of the questions below sound familiar, you would almost certainly benefit from our Career Guidance.
Questions to consider:
- Am I studying the right subjects now?
- Am I certain that I’ve made the right choices for my future?
- My exam results weren’t as good as I’d hoped – what do I do next?
- Am I totally happy with my course? If not, is it too late to change?
- Am I studying in the environment that’s best for me?
- Should I take a gap year? If so, what should I do?
- How do I choose a university or college?
- My degree doesn’t seem to be helping me with job applications – what should I do?
- How can I get started when everyone is asking for previous experience?
- I don’t seem to be getting any interviews – is my CV okay? How do I seriously improve it?
- I get the interviews but never the job offers – what’s going wrong?
- I’ve just started my first job, but it doesn’t seem right for me – why is this?
