My parents suggested that I attend career counselling with Pamela at SmartChoice Careers.

Firstly, I didn’t really know what to expect with the career counselling but I just went with it in the hopes I would find something suitable for me.

I’m so grateful for the SmartChoice career counselling process because I found out what I wanted to do with my future before I even knew it!

Initially, I was a bit hesitant about going into Social Work until I discovered Mental Health Social Work and realised how passionate I am about it. I recently successfully completed my Social Work degree at a university in Australia, started working and excited about my future.

Whenever people ask me why I decided to study the degree I always tell them that I got assistance from Pamela at SmartChoice because I know I wouldn’t be here without your guidance. Thank you so much, Pamela!

A couple of years ago, I had a career counselling session with Pamela that turned out to be a real eye-opener.

The session helped me understand my potential for growth in various career options, some of which I had never considered before.

At that time, I was a classical dancer and lecturer, but I decided to pursue a new career in community service. Given the broad scope of community services, I felt confused about my next steps. Pamila played a crucial role in simplifying this process. She helped me identify my strengths, interests, and capabilities using flashcards. This activity provided me with a clear direction for my career pathway.

Pamela’s friendly approach and honest feedback were instrumental in guiding me through my career transition. Her support made a significant difference, and I am grateful for her assistance.
