A student’s career decision is be easily influenced by external factors and so for any aspiring learner, a career decision is typically influenced by various factors such as :

? Parental pressure,

? Peer pressure,

? Society trends,

? Quick settling/ money career options,

? Fast Money (less knowledge)

? Wrong prejudices about careers in general

Counselling requires empathy, psychological understanding and current knowledge of all the professions and career options available out there. Hence it is advised to resort to professional counsellors and career guides.

An expert career counsellor will be able to tell the personality, career interest, career motivators, learning style and the skills and abilities of the student.
