The Hindu EducationPlus Career Counselling 2026 turns into informative session on career choices

Resource persons from various fields provided detailed information and rare insights to students of various PU colleges at The Hindu EducationPlus Career Counselling 2026, organised at Shaheen Parvaz Hall in Bidar on Saturday (May 9).

There were nine speakers, but the loudest applause was reserved for Abdul Nasir Mauzam, career counsellor from CIGMA, who spoke about various career choices after PU and degree. He began his talk by saying he will not speak about medicine, engineering, IAS or IPS, but on various other, lesser-known career choices and rewarding professions.

He asked the youth to reflect deeply on their abilities, skills, aptitude, interests, and attitudes, and then attempt to make career choices. He said that the challenge before the earlier generations was scarcity of information about higher education and careers while the present generation is flooded with information that confuses them. “However, we should take information from all, but take our own decisions,’’ he said.
