Have you just passed your 12th Std? Confused about your career choices?
Life after HSC can be quite complicated, especially when it comes to deciding upon a career, since this will affect your future life. Students are often overwhelmed with so many careers like medicine, law, management, fashion design, engineering & so on. There is also peer pressure and advice coming in from parents, relatives, neighbours, etc. With all this, there is a risk of making the wrong career choice & ending up in a job that you don’t enjoy. You cannot achieve great success in a career that you are not passionate about and hence, it is very important that the decision to pursue a career is taken after careful thought.
To make an informed choice about your future career, you need to speak to people related to that industry and understand how it is like to work in that sector. There are specific career counselors for each industry to provide you with the right guidance. Career guidance is provided free of cost at many counseling centres to students who want to choose what to study after the 12th std.
For instance, consider the animation industry. Animation career counselors will explain to you about a career as an animator, what kind of work roles are offered, which are the major animation studios, what is the average starting salary for animators, etc.
MAAC offers free career counseling to help students learn more about careers in 3D Animation & VFX.
