Have you just passed or waiting for the result of Class 12 examination? Time is ripe to mull or think over the career prospect. This is the right platform of your age to take off the career flight. A concrete plan about your future needs to be drawn very carefully at this juncture. This will determine your course for the rest of life.
This is the formative age to shape your career. Stiff competition and plenty of options make students confused. To weed out the thorns of confusion, first you need to analyze your interest, hobby, inclination, potentiality and opportunities. It is often said that if you choose your career based on your interest and hobby, the success rate as well as satisfaction level will be very high. Always remember the old adage “Survival of the fittest”. Don’t choose any career being influenced by peer and parents. Give Priority to your potentiality and interest. It should be the sole criteria of selecting a career in the ocean of opportunities. Choose your career on the basis of following aspects keeping in mind.
- Assess your strength and weakness.
- Level of interest
- Aptitude
- Possibility and opportunities.
- Potentiality and capability
- Feasibility and guidance
- Skills
- Nature of work
- Financial aid and scholarship
- Personality
Apart from this, remember these are the days of specialization. In the coming years, a majority (85%) of new jobs will require people with some education and training. So always pay heed to specialized education rather than simple and theoretical. A little bit training or practical education would be a shot in the arm.
