Zaina Shahnawaz
Before my career counselling session with Ascent Consulting, I was really confused about which subjects to choose and what career options were right for me. I liked a lot of different things but didn't know how they could turn into a career. Poonam Ma'am helped me understand my strengths and explained different pathways in a very simple way. After the session, I felt much more confident and clear about my future

I had an idea of what I wanted to do in the future, but I didn't know what steps I should take to get there. The counselling session helped me understand which subjects, activities, and skills would support my goals. It made everything feel less confusing, and now I have a much clearer plan for the future.
