The use of career guidance is therefore also to help you know more about your professional self and find out what skills and talents you already possess.
How is career guidance done?
An expert career guide will use a combination of advising, mentoring, coaching, which is not limited to any special discipline and may also include fitting interview techniques, a series of analysis, assessments, and other methods.
Highly structured career guidance is also based on your requirements and thus is individualized for you. It can help you formulate your own career goals and plan the path to these goals accordingly and efficiently. This way it lets you explore career options and also show you concrete steps on how to take them.
