What a Career Counselor does all day
Your day might start with meeting a student to discuss their college application essays, followed by a workshop for a group of juniors on exploring different career fields. Later, you could be helping a senior research vocational training programs or connect with a local business for an internship. You'll spend time analyzing student assessments, updating resources, and collaborating with teachers and parents to support each student's unique journey.
