Five key steps that will help students build the career of their dreams
The teenage years are an exciting time in a student’s life when they start learning to deal with new experiences and expectations, not just in terms of their academics but also about their careers. Some decisive steps during this time can help them avoid the indecision and anxiety of making the right choice. Here are five key transitions that students will have to make to help them build the career of their dreams.
In school, students see their strengths in terms of subjects. That is why they prepare themselves to do better in those. However, the workplace functions on a completely different dynamic, where all challenges and opportunities come in the form of people, technology or money. This creates a gap between academic learning and real-world expectations, thereby forcing students to wonder if they have the right skills. Thus, the need is to fill this gap by helping young learners have a wholesome understanding of the real world.
