According to this article, "One in two Canadians who have not had career counselling say they would have sought professional career planning or employment advice if they could do it over again, a new survey has found." Of course, it's easy to find regret about the past in any population. I would be curious to know how people who followed career planning advice would have responded. In my case, had I followed the advice, I would have had a career in the military. So what would have happened? Would I today be a general, an unhappy sergeant, or perhaps lost out on a battlefield some place? Regrets, I would have had a few. Maybe. The survey was commissioned by the Canadian Education and Research Institute for Counselling (CERIC). Via Academica.
