ASK A CAREER COUNSELOR


I am a fresh graduate and I have dyed my hair to pink. Should I consider re-dyeing them now that I have to join the corporate world and give up my outlook?

It really depends what professional sector or field you’re considering to join. Most professional jobs will require you to be more presentable and less funky, so unfortunately you’ll need change your outlook.

I am a 16 year old in 9th grade and I want to pursue psychology in the future. If that does not pan out, then I will consider nutrition. Could you give me some advice on how to tackle future plans?

A degree in psychology and nutrition will require you to study science subjects in your O Levels and A Levels. You’ll also need to study math to pursue these two subjects later on. More importantly, read about these subjects in-depth so that you have a better understanding of these subjects and volunteer and do internships in these fields.

I don’t think my university education is actually teaching me anything. I have finished 20 courses and I don’t think I want to continue. Where do I go from here? Shall I take a semester break and explore my options?

A degree is never useless because while you’re enrolled in a degree program you meet people and make connections. You do internships and get a better understanding of your future goals. And all these things together help you acquire a suitable job later on in life. If you want to work or do a job, you will require a degree and all these experiences.

Is there scope for students who want to pursue political sciences?

A degree in political science has a lot of scope in several sectors. One can also pursue CSS after a degree in political science or you can explore the field of education.
