Your observation and anxiety are natural. Generally, you will find a standard test being offered irrespective of the specific doubt or presenting issue highlighted by the student and/or her/his family. We, on the other hand, strongly believe that the context in which a student is taking a psychometric test is extremely important before choosing an appropriate psychometric test. A standard test cannot cater to the diverse needs of the student population. Choosing a course after 12th is completely different from deciding on an apt branch of engineering and both these situations are distinct from thinking about a suitable career path.
Our Ideal Career Test (ICT) is specifically designed for youngsters who are clear about their study path but need help in deciding on a career path.
In our childhood, we are told that we can take up any profession and excel in it if we set your mind to it, right? That’s the perception that we all carry since childhood when we imagined becoming sports star or actors (mostly based on individual brilliance). Gradually, we come to realize that we can’t all be Sachin Tendulkar or Amitabh Bachchan—and that we don’t want to be, anyway! We love our unique personalities and circle of friends. As we understand the real world better, we typically outgrow these fantasies of youth and begin mapping out a career that’s aligned with our personal goals and values.
ICT can help you in this stage by systematically analyzing your interests and aptitude to shortlist the top three career fields for you. However, you should remember the fact that these shortlisted paths may be very different from each other. Hence, you should not expect the report to give you a ready-to-execute instruction.
Later, after gaining some years of work experience in leading teams, you will find more opportunities and be keen on moving up the organization’s hierarchy. ICT can be very helpful at that stage as well.
As you can see, there are various stages in our life when we look out for some help in taking key decisions regarding our career progression. Apart from talking to our Teachers, Mentors and close family members, ICT can provide an additional unbiased point of view for you.
You should also remember that with any profession that you choose, you have to do some work that may not be of your liking. You must take that in your stride and not feel dejected by getting trapped in the illusion of “may be this is not the perfect career for me”.

Wouldn't it be so wonderful if you could lead a life that is not given to you by people or situations around you but the one that you desire from within your heart? I had dreamt of such a life for long and, therefore, took a decision of dropping off my decade-long career in geospatial space and follow my heart. No matter how successful and rewarding my job was, I knew my true calling is connecting and engaging with people. So, I went on to become a certified life coach offering personalised 1-on-1 and group coaching programs to- * To-be professionals not able to decide which course to take next or which skill to acquire that best suits their interest and capability. * Working Professionals who took a break in career but now want to re-start * Working professionals who are discontented with their current position and want to make a move or shift Starting from identifying my clients' needs to establishing goals, I work toward helping them shift their mindset and think bigger so that they can reach their full potential and grow professionally.
