During my school and college days, in the 80’s and 90’s, the only criteria to choose a career was based on our academic performance. Like myself, most of us must have pondered over the fact whether marks actually help us to choose the right group after our 10th grade and is it an indicator of our professional success or failure?

Then in later years during my professional voyage as a counselor in different educational institutions and working in the HR –helped me to interact with students, parents, job applicants, people from different levels of management. These interactions made me realize that our education alone is not enough to, make the right career choice nor does it guarantee a successful professional life. The need for a deeper understanding or knowledge of our abilities, our talents and our career inclination is required even before we choose our career. So that these abilities can be utilized in our chosen profession, thereby, helping us to go up the professional ladder smoothly and successfully. On discussion with the St. Mary’s Group, I found out their thoughts were in sync with mine, that the students must have knowledge and understanding of their inborn abilities that is, those Aptitudes, that are necessary to choose their career and to perform well in their chosen profession. And thus the spark in my eyes grew wings and eventually Mindscape took shape in the year 2001.
