We didn’t have a career counselor at the college prep high school I went to because it was assumed everyone would go work at their dads law firm

my counselor told me to do pharmacy over computers because they just shipped all the jobs to India three years later we saw that not work out for anyone very well and start the blitz we have today, and a year after that I dropped out of pharmacy school and got my BS in CS

why do they always get so specific with the advice? my school let us use a computer program that asked a bunch of questions and the answer was "something with computers" and a list of like 50 examples.

your career recommendation needs to be highly specific to hide the fact that all of the recommendations are some flavor of "join the military"

ADINSX posted:We didn’t have a career counselor at the college prep high school I went to because it was assumed everyone would go work at their dads law firm we definitly didn't have "career counselors". we had guidance counselors that we basically saw for a total of 8 minutes throughout the entirety of high school. once a year you went in, they said "ok, you're taking classes x, y and z next year? have your parents sign this and drop it off in the office" and that was it oh, and the smarmy, moronic guidance counselor who dealt with the incoming freshman that didn't come from the district middle school lost my and many other students' transcripts, so a bunch of kids initially wound up in the wrong classes

no one ever told me to go into computers because at the time "computer programmer" was a lovely mid-level office job on par with "copy machine repair guy" and "accounts receivable guy"

So advice was to study business. Which tbh I don't regret, I'm managing to mostly combine that with what I learned form the computer hobby for the job, and don't have to deal with jira ticket and scrum nonsense.
