Hafsa lives in Jumma Faqeer Village with her family of seven. Her father is a schoolteacher in their village. She likes reading novels, history and Islamic literature. Before attending the session on career education, Hafsa had different thoughts about her future path. The book reading motivated her to become a writer. When she saw someone successful and impressive person, for example a lecturer, so she thought of becoming a lecturer. She was also fascinated by the Army and wanted to join the Armed forces, or become an astronaut. This indecisive state puzzles her and she decides to stop thinking about her future path.
She attended the career education session and liked the RIASEC test and women’s stories. The RIASEC test results indicated her interest in engineering as a career path. This discovery about herself was surprising for her because she never had thought about that before. Similarly, the Women’s Stories not only gave her encouragement to follow her dreams but also showed the reality of life as an adult.
Hafsa now feels that she should choose a career as per her interests and not by becoming impressed by a successful person. The career education training gives her understanding and awareness of multiple options to select a future path. She feels that even if she could not become an engineer she could select any other occupation and would continue to progress towards her life goals.
