What is career guidance?

Career guidance is the process of understanding your skills, interests, values, and goals so that you can make informed decisions about your future. 

Career guidance is not only about finding a job. It also includes: 

  • Identifying strengths and transferable skills 

  • Exploring career pathways 

  • Setting professional goals 

  • Building employability skills 

  • Developing confidence for the workplace 

  • Planning further study or training 

NMIT's Careers & Employability service can support you at any stage of this process.
