Career counselling is very much important for the development of nation into a great and developed nation. There is no concept of career counselling in Pakistan but few years ago Pakistani colleges and universities started career counselling departments in the institutions. But there is still our education system is lacking behind in career counselling and students guidance for selection study fields for further studies. Students mostly depends on their parents or other family members while selecting their field of study and due to this usually they enroll in a study field which is not fit for them.
In Pakistan mostly parents decide about the study programs for their children and they decide on their own wishes. Parents don’t decide it according to the personal interests and skills of their children. Mostly students are not able to decide their own study field because of unawareness about their own personality traits and hidden talents.

It is said that Pakistan has guided missiles but unguided youth which is the real asset of the nation. There are lots of topics on which students required guidance.
