Know the opinion of Sandeepa Kumar, Principal of Ryan International School, Dombivali, on how to choose the right career option after passing 12th.

1. Identify your interest and ability

Before choosing a career option, it is important to understand what you are interested in. It would not be right to make a decision just by looking at others or under the pressure of social expectations. See which career options match your hobbies and interests. Choosing the right career will not only give you satisfaction, but you will also be able to perform better in your work in the future. Identify your strengths, skills, and areas of expertise and make the right decision. This will increase your confidence and also guarantee success.

2. Understand prospects through research

Technology is changing very fast. New career options are emerging every day. We had not even thought of many of these earlier. Therefore, research the industries and new job opportunities that will grow in the coming years. Learn and understand those areas which have high growth potential and which will remain in demand in the future as well. With this, you can choose a career that will bring you success for a long time and you will not have trouble finding a job.

3. Focus on skill development
In the current era, just a degree obtained from books is not enough. To achieve success, it is also necessary to take practical skills and training. Keep yourself updated with new technologies and changing trends. While choosing a career after 12th, definitely see whether that field will be able to give you opportunities to learn new skills and improve yourself. By constantly learning new skills and upgrading yourself, not only will your value increase in the job market, but you will also get better opportunities at the global level.

4. Pay attention to everything from fees to salary

While choosing a career, do not just look at your choice, also assess how much it can make you financially stable. Investment is needed to move forward in any direction - be it education, a course, or special training. See how much the option you have chosen will cost to study and whether it is right according to your current financial situation or not. Also, consider what the scope in it going forward and how much salary it can get you.

5. Be prepared for change

No career option can be considered stable. Many times it happens that the direction in which you started does not meet your expectations later. In such a situation, instead of panicking, embrace the change. If you feel that your career is not going in the right direction, then seek advice from your teachers, guides, and career counselors. Do not hesitate to embrace new opportunities and consider career change not as a failure, but as an opportunity to learn and move forward.
