What is Career Counselling?
An old adage says that “if you choose a job you love, you won’t have to work a day of your life.” When we are in a career path that fits well with our skills, natural abilities and personality it is amazing. The right career can provide meaning, purpose and inspiration for your life. However, that is not always the case. Sometimes, we start a job and then quickly find that it is not all that it was meant to be. Your boss might make the work environment a nightmare. Tasks seemed exciting in theory turn out to be drudgery in reality. That is where career counselling comes in.
You might be just entering your work career, and be overwhelmed with the opportunities that are available. You may also be feeling like the job you have been in for the last 20 years is losing its luster. The truth is, these days it is rare to work the same job for your entire life. As you grow, you change, and as you change your job does too. No one should be stuck in a work environment that isn’t right for them.
How Does Career Counselling Help with Your Vocation?
Career Counselling is a great place to start when looking for a new line of work. In this process the counsellor and counselling participant will work together to identify the natural strengths and abilities that the participant has. This is done by going through a multi-faceted personality test, combined with an inventory of the participant’s interests. Then, the counsellor and participant look at corresponding career opportunities, talk about they different merits of each, and come up with a practical plan for the future. Often the perfect job is something you had never even heard of before!
