5 best channels on career guidance for students from India
What after the 10th or 12th? This is a question that comes into the mind of 95% of parents and children post exam results. Though across various universities, nearly 25000 career courses are available for students, mostly our knowledge is limited to becoming a doctor, engineer, lawyer, or commerce graduate.
The career path is something that needs to be taken after understanding our Childs unique strengths, abilities, and interests. Do not make this choice based on marks or instincts. As we do financial planning for our children, we must invest our time in our Childs career planning too.
