Choosing a career is generally not a one-time decision; it’s a series of decisions, made as you progress through different stages of life, experience, and responsibility. Below are the various mistakes in choosing a career.

1. Choosing a career because of the prestige attached to it.
2. Choosing a career in which one does not possess the necessary ability, interest, aptitude and personality traits.
3. Choosing a career because a friend has chosen it. 4. Choosing a career in which employment is either scarce or non-existent.
5. Choosing a career the preparation/training for which the family/personal resources are not able to carry.
6. Choosing a career just to please parents and other family members.
7. Choosing a career out of frustration or as a last resort.
8. Choosing a career that may not be actualized with the school subjects offered by the student.
9. Choosing a career without consulting professional guidance personnel.
10. Choosing a career that one may not be committed to but choosing it for the fun of it.
11. Choosing a career because of the monetary advantages.
12. Choosing a career without full knowledge about the career.
13. Choosing a career that would not help to lead one to self-actualization or self-fulfillment; i.e. achieving one’s career goals.
14. Choosing a career for which one lacks the necessary training, skills and dispositions.
15. Choosing a career that is not relevant to the needs of the society. www.SchoolParrot.com.ng Team.
