Career Counselling & Career Guidance Services for Individuals
Career decisions are very important as we spend about 70% of our lives at work. When we are matched to careers that suit us we tend to be happier, more satisfied and more successful. Using our unique natural abilities and skills to their full potential means that we can often earn more, whilst not using them means we are wasting the very talents that make up who we are.
Over the course of our lives we are constantly making decisions about our careers.
- We have to choose which courses to study at school and university and what want to do after graduation.
- Sometimes we feel we need a career change to a vocation that is more closely aligned with our interests later in life.
- We may have to make decisions about the kind of work we would like to do when returning from time away from the work place for any number of reasons including maternity, redundancy or even illness.
- Many of us feel that our current roles are not challenging enough and would like to make the most of our potential or earn more money.
