Career Aspiration – A Diagnostic Exercise
Students expressed their desired career lines based on their existing knowledge, in a survey conducted by Eduvision. This read gave us a platform to discuss the SWOT of each career line. More than half of the total students were utterly confused about their careers. Remaining students were also very traditionally aligned with career aspirations.Why Career Planning?
Spiral growth in multifaceted industry requires best potentials in their employed resources and deployed infrastructure. So is the aspiration of institution and parents for the young breed, to get settled professionally and to grow vertically in their ‘career of choice’.
What Does Career of Choice Mean ?
Careers are chosen with following as a multitude of causal factors:
- Demand in the industry
- Academic Background
- Parental Pressure and/or Legacy
- Personal Inclination
- Intrinsic Motivation
- Go-With-the-Wind Approach
- And many more
What is the Real Challenge ?
The real challenge is to negate few fundamental myths i.e.
- Career Choice is (or to be) after completion of Formal Education (Graduation/Post-graduation).
- Selection of or admission in Higher Education Institution itself defines the career path
- At early schooling or college level, it is premature to assess relevant potentials for ‘right career’ in future
- Only hard work is the key to success (whereby planning is an essential part to make this hard work more result oriented)
- Too much preoccupation with planning exercise is counterproductive at times (as a matter of fact, failing to plan is recipe of planning to fail).
