\u2018Career Guidance\u2019, \u2018Career Counseling\u2019 and \u2018College Placements\u2019 are ubiquitous words that you have probably grown weary of by now. If not, chances are you soon will.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, what is it about these terms that are making most educators squirm uncomfortably in their seats? Well, for one we all agree that<\/span> Guidance is important<\/a><\/strong>. But there is a more evolved part of us that tells us that something is amiss. Perhaps we know that this thinking is limiting and does not really do justice to the full scope of what \u2018Shaping Students\u2019 Futures\u2019<\/b> really means. Perhaps, we have so many choices in the<\/span> career guidance<\/a><\/strong> and college applications \u2018market\u2019, that we are left to question what our students really need? Add to that, fragmented delivery and broken service promises from former partners, which makes us unsure of who to trust with the future of our students.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So, how do you choose the right Guidance Partner for your school?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Is there a perfect science to this? Probably not. But you can keep certain key considerations in mind to optimize the chances of success:<\/span><\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> <\/span>Commitment:<\/span> <\/strong><\/span>A partner who will consistently communicate and work closely with you to understand your ever-evolving needs is gold. We could wax eloquent about this one, but we will let our country-wide presence and partners do the talking.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Evolving Expertise: <\/strong><\/span>If you don\u2019t know it, you can\u2019t lead it. Experience, a blend of local and global knowledge of best practices along with a robust Research and Development team that is constantly innovating are critical to dependable expertise. The R & D team is the second largest one in our company of about 100<\/strong> employees. Just saying.<\/span><\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Engaging all Stakeholders: <\/strong><\/span>A decision about a student\u2019s future is multi-dimensional. In that, it involves not just the counselor and the student herself. It can be immeasurably enriched through factual facilitation by<\/span> Alumni<\/a><\/strong>, Universities and other experts that the student might otherwise not have access to.<\/span><\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> Service Support: <\/strong><\/span>The key to a lasting relationship and a great experience is rock solid service support. At Univariety, we answer our phones, take the time to get to know you, listen to your problems and fix them. We are not perfect; we know it and work with our partners to tirelessly deliver. That is the key to our Customer Service.<\/span><\/p>\n

5.<\/strong> \u2018International\u2019 isn\u2019t a synonym for \u2018Credibility\u2019: <\/strong><\/span>Let\u2019s face it, India is the crucible for some of the best startups and technology in the world. Are we still looking to American and European companies to come to our rescue, knowing perfectly well that they could exit at a moment\u2019s notice? We are based out of Hyderabad, India, with teams across 6 cities in the country. We are here to stay.<\/span><\/p>\n

6.<\/strong> Collaborative & Comprehensive: <\/strong><\/span>Are you looking for a career counselor, an ERP solution for applications, an online search platform or<\/span> University connects<\/strong><\/a>? What about teacher and counselor training? And after all this effort, perhaps the chance for national recognition and sharing of best practices? Yes, that is us. All of it. A Full-Service Partner, that works with your school and students, through the year, year on year.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
