At different points in our lives, the decision about what to do resurfaces and forces us to evaluate what our sense of meaning and purpose is. And for a lot of us, that is defined in what we do in our waking hours – what we do for work. The process of finding a career is not always easy. Many factors, including personal interests, skills, values, and the job market, can influence a person’s career decision. It is important to take the time to reflect on what is important to a person, and to consider their strengths and weaknesses when exploring different career options.

Career counsellors use a variety of tools, techniques, and assessments to help individuals understand their strengths, limitations, and areas for growth.
