See how career counselling helped students and professionals find clarity and achieve their dreams
Arjun Deshmukh
Grade 10 Student, Mumbai
The Problem
Arjun was caught between his parents' expectations to pursue engineering and his own interest in creative fields. His grades were good in both Science and Arts, making the decision even harder.
The KGC Solution
Dr. Gupta conducted comprehensive psychometric testing including MBTI® and aptitude assessments. The results revealed Arjun had strong analytical skills combined with exceptional creative thinking. Dr. Gupta suggested exploring Design Engineering and UX Design.
The Outcome
Arjun chose Science stream with a focus on Design. He's now preparing for NID and is also considering Product Design programs abroad. His parents are relieved and fully supportive.
Ananya Krishnan
Grade 12 Student, Chennai
The Problem
Ananya wanted to study Psychology abroad but her parents were skeptical about career prospects. She had a 95% average but no international exposure. With applications due in 4 months, she felt unprepared.
The KGC Solution
KGC created a strategic 4-month plan: identified 12 universities with strong Psychology programs, helped craft a compelling personal statement, and positioned her NGO volunteer work as relevant experience.
The Outcome
Ananya received admits from 8 universities including UCLA, NYU, and University of Toronto. She chose UCLA with a $15,000 annual scholarship. Her parents are now her biggest cheerleaders.
Vikram Malhotra
Senior Manager, IT Services, 8 Years Experience
The Problem
Vikram was earning well but felt stuck in a technical role with no growth path. He considered an MBA but wasn't sure if it was worth leaving a stable job at 32 with a family to support.
The KGC Solution
Dr. Gupta conducted a thorough career assessment and ROI analysis. They explored full-time MBA vs Executive MBA options. Given Vikram's profile, Dr. Gupta recommended targeting top 15 US programs with strong scholarship prospects.
The Outcome
Vikram got into ISB and Michigan Ross with significant scholarships. He chose Ross and is now a Strategy Consultant at McKinsey, earning 3x his previous salary. The MBA paid for itself within 2 years.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about career counselling
Who should consider career counselling?
Career counselling benefits students from Grade 8 onwards who want clarity on subject choices, college paths, and career direction. It's equally valuable for working professionals considering career transitions or higher education.
When is the right time to start career counselling?
The earlier, the better. Grade 8-9 is ideal for foundational guidance, Grade 10-11 for stream selection, and Grade 12 for college applications. Working professionals should seek guidance when contemplating major career decisions.
How do career counselling sessions work?
Sessions typically start with psychometric assessments, followed by 1-on-1 discussions with Dr. Gupta to interpret results, explore options, and create a personalized roadmap. Follow-up sessions track progress and refine strategies.
Should parents attend the counselling sessions?
We encourage parents to attend initial sessions to understand the process and be part of decision-making. Later sessions may be student-only to encourage independence and honest self-exploration.
Is career counselling available online?
Yes! Our online career counselling delivers the same expert guidance through secure video sessions. This is ideal for families outside Mumbai, NRIs, and busy professionals.
